During rookie minicamp, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Shemar James made a strong first impression on head coach Brian Schottenheimer and his staff. The 2025 draft class kicked off workouts at The Star in Frisco, and James quickly stood out with his physicality and energy.
As a fifth-round pick out of Florida, James has big expectations—especially wearing the iconic No. 50 jersey once donned by Cowboys great Sean Lee. Despite the pressure, James made an immediate impact.
Per Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com, James delivered a powerful hit on an assistant coach during pad drills, energizing the entire staff and showcasing his intensity on defense.
