Game Preview: Despite being a preseason matchup, it is a big game for the Rams as it marks the first game in LA after moving from St. Louis over the offseason. It will mark the debut of number one draft pick quarterback Jared Goff.
For the Cowboys, Tony Romo and rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott are both expected to be held out of the game. Rookie quarterback Dak Prescott has been getting second team reps, and is expected to start with Romo out.
Cowboys fans hope Prescott can show some flashes of his potential. With Romo’s history of injuries, Prescott could be groomed as his successor, and tonight’s game will give Cowboys fans the first chance to see him play.
