\u201cMy family grew up a Cowboys fan. My mom always had a Cowboys shirt on. She always talked about them. Living in Texas has been a longtime dream of mine. And now I\u2019m with them.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m ready to work.\u201d \u2013 New QB Joe Milton.<\/p>\n

Dallas Cowboys Pull Off Big Trade for New England Patriots Quarterback – Athlon Sports<\/em><\/p>\n

FRISCO \u2013 The Dallas Cowboys openly admitted they were in the market for some quarterback depth this offseason. \u2026 and openly admitted that Joe Milton was high on the wish list.<\/p>\n

Turns out, the feeling is mutual.<\/p>\n

Dak Prescott is atop the depth chart and there is some faith in Will Grier as a backup, too.<\/p>\n

But Dallas shopped for more of an insurance policy. \u2026 and the Cowboys believe they just won the trade with the New England Patriots for quarterback Joe Milton III on Thursday, who comes to town along with a seventh-round pick in exchange for a Cowboys fifth-rounder.<\/p>\n

Upside makes for a strong argument for the Cowboys here. The 2025 quarterback class does not showcase much promise and Milton (6-5 and 250) could be a solid option for now \u2026 and maybe an explosively impact contributor if his talent is ever fully realized.<\/p>\n

The Cowboys got their guy.<\/p>\n

And the response from Milton?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMy family grew up a Cowboys fan,\u201d Milton told reporter Jordan Schultz. \u201cMy mom always had a Cowboys shirt on. She always talked about them. Living in Texas has been a longtime dream of mine.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd now I\u2019m with them. I\u2019m ready to work.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Milton may not have been a heralded prospect coming out of the college ranks. But flashes from the 2024 preseason and last year\u2019s 241-yard one-touchdown outing while QB\u2019ing the Pats against the Buffalo Bills have some dreaming about his potential.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s a cheap backup, for now. And he\u2019s got to beat out Will Grier to ever play \u2026 if for some reason Dak Prescott is unavailable.<\/p>\n

And given Dak\u2019s injury history?<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s a consideration here.<\/p>\n

Is Milton better than Trey Lance, Dallas\u2019 previous \u201cexperimental trade QB\u201d? There\u2019s no way of knowing that. What we do know is that Dallas is happy with the deal.<\/p>\n

And that Joe\u2019s family is happy as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
