Both teams are coming into this game with a 1-0 record. The Cowboys hold an all-time series lead of 18-13 against the Saints, with their most recent meeting resulting in a 27-17 victory for the Cowboys on December 2, 2021, in New Orleans.

Kamara impressed in Week 1 with over 100 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown, while Prescott showcased efficiency in his first game since signing a record-breaking contract.
