The Athletic’s Jon Machota believes WR Simi Fehoko has been the biggest surprise of Cowboys training camp.
Machota reports that “Fehoko has consistently come up big, particularly in the red zone, using his size and speed to create space on deep balls or make contested catches in traffic.” After logging just 55 total snaps as a rookie, 48 of which came on special teams, Machota believes that Fehoko “looks ready to contribute in Year 2, which the Cowboys desperately need considering how thin they are at the position.” Noah Brown has also stood out at camp, which could make the Cowboys less likely to sign a veteran wide receiver following James Washington’s injury. Both Fehoko and Brown will have opportunities to show what they can do with Michael Gallup (knee) unlikely to play Week 1.
