Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday that Overshown (knee) is ahead of schedule in his recovery from the ACL tear he suffered last August, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

The 2023 third-round pick was slated to have a big role in the Cowboys linebacker corps before tearing his ACL during Dallas' second preseason game. During Overshown's final collegiate season at Texas, he recorded 96 total tackles, four sacks and five pass breakups. The Cowboys added veteran linebacker Eric Kendricks earlier in the offseason, but Overshown could still see plenty of playing time once he returns to the field.
