He finished the preseason with four catches for 82 yards and a touchdown. Including that 53-yard bomb in Arizona from Joe Milton... The Cowboys kept Mingo on the initial 53-man roster alongside Brown, giving the former second-round pick another chance to carve out a role in an offense that already has Lamb and Pickens at the top of the depth chart.

Mingo's preseason 82 yards and TD earned another chance; minor role with injury upside.

Former second-round pick acquired from Carolina entered training camp with something to prove after his time in Dallas hadn't gone according to plan. Mingo's preseason performance—4 catches, 82 yards, 1 TD including a 53-yard touchdown reception from Joe Milton—gave the Cowboys enough reason to keep him on the initial 53-man roster. The source notes Mingo also repeatedly produced in practices at training camp. With Lamb and Pickens locked in at the top of the depth chart, Mingo's NFL game experience should give him a minor offensive role that would increase in case of injury. If he can turn preseason flashes into reliable production, his roster spot could prove to be one of the Cowboys' better decisions this summer.
