Garrett Gilbert - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Set for first-team reps Gilbert is expected to get most of the first-team reps in training camp while Dak Prescott (shoulder) is sidelined, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ben DiNucci and Cooper Rush will also spot in, but Gilbert is the favorite to win the No. 2 job and will get a long look from the coaching staff as a result. There's no timetable yet for when Prescott might get back into action, but the Cowboys don't seem worried about his Week 1 availability. If that changes, the front office might also change its mind on whether Gilbert -- who has only one career NFL start under his belt -- is enough of an insurance policy and bring in veteran competition for QB reps.

Gets first career start in 2020 Gilbert completed 21 of 38 passes for 243 yards and a touchdown with one interception in his only appearance of 2020.

Impact The 29-year-old made his first career NFL start in Week 9 as the Cowboys' fourth quarterback of the season, after Dak Prescott had undergone ankle surgery, Andy Dalton had been sidelined with a concussion, and rookie Ben DiNucci had flopped. Gilbert acquitted himself reasonably well against a tough Steelers team that was undefeated at the time, and once Dalton returned to action Gilbert held onto the No. 2 spot on the depth chart, although he didn't see any further action. He has one more year remaining on his current contract while Dalton is a free agent, so assuming Prescott is back in 2021, Gilbert could remain the backup for the Cowboys if they don't bring in a more experienced option again.

Likely returning to backup role Gilbert is likely to serve as Dallas' backup quarterback Sunday in Minnesota with top signal-caller Andy Dalton expected to start after being activated from the reserve/COVID-19 li...

Impact After being knocked out of the Cowboys' Week 7 loss to Washington with a concussion, Dalton tested positive for the coronavirus shortly thereafter and proceeded to miss Dallas' two games before a Week 10 bye. With Ben DiNucci languishing in a starting role Week 8 in Philadelphia, Gilbert earned the chance to make his first NFL start Week 9 against the Steelers and proved to be a competent game manager in the loss, completing 21 of 38 attempts for 243 yards, a touchdown and an interception while scrambling three times for 28 yards. Now that he's healthy again, Dalton's larger body of experience at the NFL level should keep him atop the depth chart, but Gilbert seemingly has at least solidified himself as the Cowboys' No. 2 option ahead of DiNucci.

Nearly leads Dallas to upset win Gilbert completed 21 of 38 passes for 243 yards and a touchdown with one interception in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Steelers. He also gained 28 rushing yards on three carries.

Impact The 29-year-old came into Sunday having attempted only six passes in the NFL since being drafted by the Rams in the sixth round in 2014, but Gilbert put together a surprising credible showing in his first career start against one of the league's best defenses. Dallas even went into halftime with the lead before things finally fell apart in the fourth quarter. Gilbert's performance could give coach Mike McCarthy a tough decision in Week 11 coming out of the Cowboys' bye if Andy Dalton (concussion) is healthy enough to play.
