The Dallas Cowboys face a major adjustment after the retirement announcement of nine-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Zack Martin, leaving a significant gap in their offensive line. Despite this setback, the team is looking ahead with the other four starters under contract, including Tyler Smith and Terence Steele, who will need to step up. Rookie Tyler Guyton, who had an inconsistent debut season, will be scrutinized closely as the Cowboys seek to solidify their protection for quarterback Dak Prescott.

With a host of young linemen like Cooper Beebe and T.J. Bass, Dallas hopes to find reliable options moving into the 2025 season. This shake-up could lead to further developments in free agency, as the team contemplates filling the void left by Martin's departure.
