Matchups to Watch in Ravens vs. Cowboys
CB Nate Wiggins and CB Marlon Humphrey vs. WR CeeDee Lamb and WR George Pickens: Wiggins and Humphrey will have tall tasks in guarding the Cowboys' elite pair of wideouts in Lamb and Pickens. Humphrey will hope for a get-back after Pickens beat him for a game-winning touchdown in 2023 when he was with the Pittsburgh Steelers. As a rookie, Wiggins flashed his potential when matched up against Lamb in 2024. Wiggins has a chance to show how much he's improved since.
QB Lamar Jackson vs. Cowboys Pass Defense The Cowboys struggled defending the pass in a Week 1 loss to the New York Giants and gave up a few big plays in the air against the Washington Commanders in Week 2. Jackson & Co. want to bounce back after getting stymied in the second half of the Ravens' Week 2 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
RB Derrick Henry vs. Cowboys Run Defense Henry ran for 151 yards and two touchdowns against the Cowboys in 2024. Two seasons later, Henry still looks like one of the league's best running backs, and he could have another big day against a Cowboys defense that ranks in the bottom five of rushing yards per attempt allowed (28th) and rushing yards per game allowed (30th) through two games.

Ravens Interior Offensive Line vs. DL Quinnen Williams Like Wiggins, the Ravens' interior O-line will have to face another one of the NFL's best players at their respective position. Williams, who the Cowboys acquired in a trade at the 2025 deadline, is arguably Dallas' best defender.
WR KaVontae Turpin vs. Ravens Kick Return The Ravens have allowed two kick returns of at least 50 yards in the first two weeks of this season. Now, they'll have to contain Turpin, a three-time Pro Bowler who is one of the NFL's most dangerous kick returners.
