After months of anticipation and speculation about how the new-and-improved roster will look when it hits the field in 2026, the team <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/cowboys\/onsi\/dallas-cowboys-2026-nfl-preseason-schedule-dates-times\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">opens its NFL preseason campaign on Saturday night <\/a>in primetime. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"93\">The Cowboys hit the road on Friday and <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/dallascowboys\/status\/2088449455410590094?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">landed in Seattle for a showdown against the Seahawks<\/a> at Lumen Field on the NFL Network. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"96\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/cowboys\/onsi\/brian-schottenheimer-dallas-cowboys-tip-hand-who-will-sit-vs-seahawks-nfl-preseason-opener\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">majority of the Cowboys starters will not be taking the field<\/a> for Saturday&#8217;s game, which presents a big opportunity for those who are on the roster bubble. We will also get an opportunity to see first-round picks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/cowboys\/onsi\/dallas-cowboys-reveal-preseason-plan-caleb-downs-malachi-lawrence\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence in limited action<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"99\">While expectations for the preseason can vary, especially without the starters suiting up, the oddsmakers still have their thoughts on who will come away with the win. For the Cowboys, it will be an opportunity to prove some early detractors wrong. Despite adding some depth through free agency and the NFL Draft, Dallas enters Week 1 of the preseason as a slight underdog. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/01m02rvremaz6fh880ny.jpg\" alt=\"Dallas Cowboys safety Caleb Downs at training camp at River Ridge Playing Fields. \" title=\"Dallas Cowboys safety Caleb Downs at training camp at River Ridge Playing Fields. \" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"9j\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Dallas Cowboys safety Caleb Downs at training camp at River Ridge Playing Fields.  | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9n\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/reviews\/draftkings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DraftKings<\/a>, the Cowboys are slight three-point underdogs, while the over\/under is set for 37.5 total points.

That means a $100 wager on the Cowboys would land you a $124 payout, while you would have to bet $148 on the seahawks for a $100 return.
