The dog days of summer are here. While the Dallas Cowboys do not report for training camp for another month, it’s never too early to take a look at some prop bets for the upcoming season.
With that thought in mind, today we take a look at three 2026 Cowboys bets worth taking a flyer on before the start of the regular season. All odds via FanDuel Sportsbook.
1) CeeDee Lamb to win AP Offensive Player Of The Year (+2200)
CeeDee Lamb was once again dominant last season when healthy. While the veteran wideout got off to a bit of a shaky start, dropping four passes in Dallas’ first two games, he still put together another outstanding season. After those four drops in two games, Lamb went on to drop just four passes in the remaining 12 games he would play throughout the course of the regular season.

Despite playing in just 14 games, one of which he only played two offensive series in, Lamb surpassed 1,000 receiving yards (1,077) for the fifth consecutive season. The wideout surpassed 100 receiving yards in a single game six times while catching six or more passes in a single game eight times.
Lamb is on track to have another dominant 2026 campaign, and taking a chance on him to win Offensive Player Of The Year at this number is a worthwhile bet. If Dak Prescott is healthy, Lamb is almost a lock to be one of the most productive receivers in the entire NFL.
There is a real chance Lamb could replicate his 2023 production this upcoming season. If he does so, he will certainly have a chance to take home this award.
2) Dak Prescott OVER 4050.5 Passing Yards (-114)
Since 2019, in every season that Dak Prescott has played in 13 or more regular-season games, he has easily surpassed 4,000 passing yards. It may be a bit shocking to see Dak’s O/U at 4,050, but this seems like the oddsmakers are betting that the veteran quarterback will not stay healthy all season.

If he plays in even 14-15 regular-season games, it’s a virtual lock that Prescott will surpass this number. Taking this bet is not as much about the number as it’s about believing that Dallas’ signal-caller will stay healthy throughout the course of the regular season.
At nearly even odds, taking a 50/50 shot that Prescott will remain healthy is a worthwhile bet.
3) Dallas Cowboys to make the playoffs (+100)
It won’t be easy, but with the improvements on the defensive side of the ball, the Cowboys should be a playoff team this upcoming season. While it may be a bit of a lower number, just taking Dallas to straight up make the playoffs covers you on all sides. Winning the division seems well within reach, but Dallas making it as a wild card team seems just as realistic.

As long as their stars stay healthy, it is extremely likely the Cowboys will be fighting for a playoff spot. With the seventh-best odds of all NFC teams to make the postseason, +100 is a good price to bet Dallas making a return to the playoffs.
