The 2025 season will be the Dallas Cowboys' 66th in the National Football League (NFL), their 17th playing home games at AT&T Stadium, and their first under head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The Cowboys will enter the season hoping to improve on their 7–10 record from 2024 and return to the playoffs after a one-year absence.
This will be the first season since 2013 without guard Zack Martin and defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence: Martin announced his retirement on February 20,[1] and Lawrence signed with the Seattle Seahawks during free agency.[2]
