<a href="https://www.on3.com/db/tyler-guyton-117639/">Tyler Guyton</a> was certainly welcomed to the NFL in spectacular fashion. His Week 1 assignment was going up against reigning Defensive Player of the Year <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/myles-garrett-90689/">Myles Garrett</a>. Some of the best left tackles in football struggle going up against Garrett, let alone Guyton playing in his first game.



After having some time to reflect, Guyton was asked to assess his performance on Sunday. The Dallas Cowboys rookie did not sound too pleased with himself. Playing in Cleveland certainly did not help but Guyton felt as if better results could have been produced.

“Poorly. The situation is against a good player like that on the road couldn’t even hear the (calls). Odds were against me. I don’t think it was terrible. I felt like I could have been a lot better,” Guyton <a href="https://x.com/calvinwatkins/status/1834353917632643523">said</a> on Thursday evening via Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News.



Garrett finished with one sack of Dallas quarterback <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/dak-prescott-28005/">Dak Prescott</a>, also causing a fumble. However, that was the only time he had a hit on Prescott, something most Cowboy fans would likely consider a success. Mike McCarthy did do a good job of moving the pocket and moving the play away from Garrett, especially when he lined up against Guyton.

Guyton provided no specifics about the self-critiqued performance. Just looking at the stat sheet, allowing just one sack, even with the fumble (one Dallas recovered), it’s one you take when going up against a player of Garrett’s caliber. He can take over games by himself at times, turning losses into wins quite quickly.



But that’s what getting in the film room and another week of practice is for. Guyton finally went up against a non-Cowboys player and was able to provide an honest analysis.



There will be no break moving forward. Next up on the schedule are the New Orleans Saints, this time playing at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. After mentioning he could not hear the calls in Cleveland, playing in front of the home crowd should help Guyton. Communication with Prescott will be easier for the entire offensive line.



Saints edge rusher <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/cameron-jordan-139437/">Cameron Jordan</a> is a likely candidate to face Guyton throughout the game. Jordan might not be to Garrett’s level but after all, not many are.



Not happy with his Week 1 performance, Guyton can make significant jumps heading into Week 2. Dallas certainly needs him to continue to improve after drafting him in the first round.
