Jalen Tolbert, drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft, has underperformed in his first three seasons, totaling only 890 receiving yards and 73 receptions. With the emergence of CeeDee Lamb as the team's primary receiver, Tolbert has become a secondary option in the passing game, struggling to carve out a significant role.

As he enters his fourth season, the Cowboys are awaiting a breakthrough that will elevate Tolbert's contributions. His previous expectations as a key asset now seem overshadowed by the success of more established players. The team's depth chart will continue to challenge his ability to secure a starting position.
