Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones confirmed that quarterback Joe Milton III will remain with the organization as a practice squad player. Milton saw action throughout the preseason, completing 29 of 43 passes for 378 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. While the team selected Sam Howell to serve as the primary backup to starting quarterback Dak Prescott, Jones noted that Milton’s performance showed development from the previous year. The decision allows the Cowboys to keep Milton for future options while maintaining roster flexibility. Additionally, the team added defensive player Von Miller, whom Jones expressed confidence will contribute significant numbers to the defense this season.
