2025 Fantasy Outlook
Injuries have been the story of Overshown's career so far. After missing his entire draft year in 2023 due to a torn ACL in his left knee, he blew out his right knee in Week 14 last season and will likely remain sidelined to begin the 2025 campaign. Overshown has flashed elite upside and athleticism, though, collecting 90 total tackles, including 5.0 sacks, in only 13 games. New defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus has a track record of turning players like Overshown into IDP monsters, but first the 24-year-old will need to prove he can stay on the field.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Overshown appears poised for a big role with the Cowboys as a rookie after being selected in the third round of the 2023 Draft, but a torn ACL cost him his entire rookie season. Fully recovered heading into training camp, the Texas product has strong coverage skills and can fly to the ball, but he'll compete with 2024 third-round pick Marist Liufau for a starting spot at linebacker alongside Eric Kendricks and Damone Clark.
The Cowboys continue to stockpile impressive young athletes at linebacker, with 2023 third-round pick Overshown joining Damone Clark and Jabril Cox as players fighting for snaps around veteran Leighton Vander Esch and versatile game-wrecker Micah Parsons. As a converted safety, Overshown has plus coverage skills, but he'll need to get stronger to take on NFL blockers and carve out a full-time role.

This marked the second significant knee injury of his career, but he was in the midst of a breakout season in 2024 before going down.
