Strong finish to season
Golston recorded three tackles, including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's loss to the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year defensive end had something of a breakout campaign in 2024, finishing with career highs in tackles (56) and sacks (5.5), and 3.5 of those sacks came in the final four weeks of the season. Golston, a third-round pick in 2021, may have played well enough to earn himself a big contract and a starting role with another team in 2025 as he heads into free agency, but Dallas may not make a strong push to bring him back with an extension to Micah Parsons to worry about, and Sam Williams (knee) and Marshawn Kneeland expected to fill supporting roles in the pass rush.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hamstring issue not too serious
The Cowboys don't expect Golston (hamstring) to miss Week 1, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Golston will miss at least some of his rookie training camp due to a hamstring injury that's landed him on the PUP list, but he should be back for Week 1. Golston's versatility should lead to a fair amount of defensive reps Year 1, assuming he avoids setbacks in his recovery.
