2025 Fantasy Outlook
Injuries have been the story of Overshown's career so far. After missing his entire draft year in 2023 due to a torn ACL in his left knee, he blew out his right knee in Week 14 last season and will likely remain sidelined to begin the 2025 campaign. Overshown has flashed elite upside and athleticism, though, collecting 90 total tackles, including 5.0 sacks, in only 13 games. New defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus has a track record of turning players like Overshown into IDP monsters, but first the 24-year-old will need to prove he can stay on the field.

Limited in Thursday's practice

Knee - ACL + MCL
October 30, 2025
Overshown (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Machota relays that Overshown was tagged as limited after briefly leaving Thursday's practice before returning later in the session. The third-year linebacker continues to rehab from torn a ACL, MCL and PCL that he sustained in December and has spent the first half of the 2025 regular season on the reserve/PUP list. His 21-day practice window opened Oct. 22, and he would likely have to log full practices before being activated from the reserve/PUP list.

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.
The Cowboys continue to stockpile impressive young athletes at linebacker, with 2023 third-round pick Overshown joining Damone Clark and Jabril Cox as players fighting for snaps around veteran Leighton Vander Esch and versatile game-wrecker Micah Parsons. As a converted safety, Overshown has plus coverage skills, but he'll need to get stronger to take on NFL blockers and carve out a full-time role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Recovery going well
LBDallas Cowboys
July 21, 2025
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.
