The Dallas Cowboys kick off their 2025 season tonight on the road against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, with kickoff set for 7:20 p.m. Central on NBC and Peacock.

Quarterback Dak Prescott leads a revamped offense that features star receiver CeeDee Lamb and new addition George Pickens, who was acquired in the offseason to add another big-play threat. Dallas will need the unit to click early, as the defense takes the field without pass-rushing anchor Micah Parsons, who was traded to Green Bay during the summer.

For the Eagles, quarterback Jalen Hurts and running back Saquon Barkley headline an offense that powered Philadelphia to a title last year. Lincoln Financial Field is expected to be rocking as Philly fans welcome their champions back home.

The matchup is one of the NFL’s fiercest rivalries and sets the tone for the Cowboys’ season, with Dallas fans eager to see how the team measures up against the league’s best right out of the gate.

You can watch the game on NBC and Peacock and listen live on the radio in Dallas on 105.3 The Fan.
