Knowing that speed would be the name of the game against a talented-as-any rushing attack led by his former Texas teammate, Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown got promptly to work in taking Week 9’s game by the horns. Diagnosing the Falcons’ interior runs with veteran-like precision throughout Nov. 3, 2024’s game, Overshown offered one memorable second quarter play, cannoning through Atlanta’s backfield, forcing a two-yard loss on a tackle. One quarter later, with the opposition threatening to open a two-score lead, Overshown again showcases his instincts, negating the Falcons’ end-around for a backfield tackle. Among Dallas’ bright spots, even during a 27-21 loss, the first-year linebacker tallied seven tackles (four solo), including three takedowns for a loss.
