Cowboys backup QB race neck and neck

Head coach Brian Schottenheimer described the competition as "neck and neck" with Howell "maybe a little bit ahead" after Milton "performed beautifully in both games." The two quarterbacks have alternated roles in preseason, with Howell starting the first game and Milton playing the second half.

The Cowboys prefer not to use either quarterback for meaningful snaps during the regular season, but with Dak Prescott's injury history, the backup competition remains crucial. The team must make final roster decisions by August 30. xsportfeed.life
