Signed a four-year, $5.39 million contract with the Cowboys in May of 2023.
Officially placed on PUP list
The Cowboys placed Overshown (knee) on the active/PUP list Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Overshown suffered a gruesome knee injury in Week 14 last season, blowing out his ACL, MCL and PCL in the process. He's fully expected to transfer to reserve/PUP to begin the season, which would cost him at least the first four games. Overshown is hoping to be back on the field around the middle of the season, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Overshown appears poised for a big role with the Cowboys as a rookie after being selected in the third round of the 2023 Draft, but a torn ACL cost him his entire rookie season. Fully recovered heading into training camp, the Texas product has strong coverage skills and can fly to the ball, but he'll compete with 2024 third-round pick Marist Liufau for a starting spot at linebacker alongside Eric Kendricks and Damone Clark.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Recovery going well
Overshown received a positive check-up last week as he continues his recovery from knee surgery, and the linebacker remains optimistic he'll be able to play by midseason, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 third-round pick tore multiple ligaments in his right knee last December, the second major injury he's suffered in his career after he missed his entire rookie campaign due to a torn ACL in his left knee. Overshown will begin the 2025 season on the PUP list, and a firmer date for his return should come into focus as his rehab progresses.
