• Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Set for team debut Monday

  16H ago • By RotoWire

  Mingo is active for Monday's game against the Texans, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Mingo was moved from Carolina to Dallas at the trade deadline on Nov. 5, but he understandably was held out Week 10 with only days to acclimate to a new offense. With another week of practice under his belt, he'll make his Cowboys debut Monday, but with Cooper Rush handling QB duties for Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb (back) the clear top option in the passing game, Mingo may be hard-pressed to produce. In 24 appearances with the Panthers, the 2023 second-round pick recorded 55 catches and no touchdowns on 111 targets.

• Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Set to debut in Week 11

  Mingo is expected to make his Cowboys debut Monday against the Texans, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Mingo was acquired from the Panthers last Tuesday but was a healthy inactive for this past Sunday's loss to Philadelphia. With a full week of prep with his new team, Mingo looks like he'll be ready for a role in the game plan Monday, though he won't necessarily be in store for heavy snaps with CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert ahead of him in the pecking order at receiver.

• Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Healthy scratch Sunday

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Mingo (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Just five days removed from getting traded from Carolina to Dallas, Mingo won't be available in his first chance with his new squad. The acclimation process could take some time, but the Cowboys also are in some limbo with QB Dak Prescott (hamstring) likely to undergo season-ending surgery. Cooper Rush is taking over for Prescott under center, and top WR CeeDee Lamb is playing through a shoulder injury, so Mingo may not have to wait long for his next game action if the team turns its focus toward the future.

• Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Shipped to Dallas

  The Cowboys acquired Mingo and a 2025 seventh-round draft pick from the Panthers on Tuesday in exchange for a 2025 fourth-round draft pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. The No. 39 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Mingo struggled to find his footing during his one and a half seasons in Carolina, turning in a 55-539-0 receiving line on 111 targets over 24 games. Though he was never a high-end producer during his time in college at Ole Miss, Mingo was a coveted pre-draft prospect thanks to his good size (6-foot-2, 220 pounds) as well as the intriguing athleticism he displayed at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine (4.46-second 40-yard dash time, 39.5-inch vertical leap). The Cowboys are hoping that a change in scenery will help Mingo unlock some of his potential, but his immediate outlook isn't promising with Cooper Rush slated to take over at quarterback for Dak Prescott (hamstring) in the short term. Mingo will slot in behind at least CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert on Dallas' depth chart at receiver, but he could push 2023 seventh-round pick Jalen Brooks for the No. 3 role.

• Panthers' Jonathan Mingo: Struggles again in Week 5

  10/06/2024 • By RotoWire

  Mingo caught two of his five targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bears. Mingo tied Ja'Tavion Sanders for the second-most targets on the team and saw increased snaps in the second half while Xavier Legette (shoulder) was sidelined during Sunday's loss. However, it didn't lead to increased production, as the second-year wideout was able to haul in just two of his five targets. If Legette is forced to miss Carolina's Week 6 matchup against the Falcons, Mingo could have a chance to break out and serve as the Panthers' No. 2 wide receiver.
