Head coach Mike McCarthy will head to the drawing board and see how they can adjust during the week of practices. The Cowboys start the season on the biggest stage against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 9, the first game of the entire NFL season.

However, questions swirl about the availability of quarterback Dak Prescott, and if there are more COVID-19 issues, there could be even more questions with the opener. Despite the NFL implementing new COVID-19 protocols, the issue still exists, and the hope is that the 2021 season could be a little better than the 2020 season was with all the protocols.
