Summary
- Eight new rookies join the 2026-2027 Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad.
- Several returning members earned their stars after previous cuts.
- Savannah Dastrup's success is a highlight after an emotional exit.
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders have officially announced their squad for the upcoming 2026-2027 NFL season. This year's lineup features eight promising rookies who have earned their place among America's Sweethearts. The announcement was made on July 16, 2026, through the DCC's Instagram account.
Fans will also recognize several familiar faces returning to the team. Emily Awbrey, Brianne Lindenau, and Savannah Dastrup are among those who have now officially earned their stars. These dancers had previously earned their stripes during last year's auditions but were unfortunately cut from the team.
Savannah Dastrup's journey to making the squad is particularly inspiring. Her exit in season three of the docuseries, 'America's Sweethearts,' was an emotional moment for viewers. Both DCC Director Kelli Finglass and choreographer Judy Trammell had encouraged her to continue pursuing her dream.
