Joe Milton III - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Limited action in 2025 Milton appeared in four games for the Cowboys in 2025, completing 15 of 24 passes for 183 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions. He added 50 rushing yards on five carries an...

Impact The second-year quarterback saw his most extensive action in Week 18, but Milton didn't make a single start as Dak Prescott stayed healthy for the entire season. Milton's athletic upside remains intriguing, but he's still very raw as a passer and is stuck behind the highest-paid QB in the entire NFL, giving him little fantasy appeal heading into next season other than as an insurance policy for Prescott.

Tosses garbage-time TD Milton completed three of four passes for 58 yards and a touchdown in relief of Dak Prescott during Sunday's 44-24 loss to the Broncos.

Impact With the game well out of reach, Milton took over for the Cowboys' final two drives of the game and punctuated the first by launching a perfect deep ball to Jalen Tolbert for a 35-yard TD. It was Milton's second late-game appearance of the season, but it likely won't be the last even if Prescott stays healthy given the state of the Dallas roster, as the combination of an elite offense and abysmal defense is a recipe for blowouts.

4 Takeaways From the Broncos' Win Over the Cowboys

Sees work in garbage time Milton completed three of five passes for 41 yards and an interception in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bears.

Impact The second-year QB saw his first regular-season action with the Cowboys, handling the final drive in the fourth quarter and guiding the team down the field into the red zone for a potential score until he overthrew KaVontae Turpin in the end zone for an INT. Milton will only come off the bench in garbage time unless something happens to Dak Prescott, but if he were to get a start, his big arm and mobility could give him some fantasy appeal even if his lack of polish would make him extremely volatile.

Produces two TDs against Falcons Milton completed 10 of 18 passes for 132 yards and a touchdown and added 33 rushing yards and a TD on four carries in Friday's 31-13 preseason win over Atlanta.

Impact After two very shaky exhibition performances, Milton looked a little more polished Friday, producing Dallas' first points on a one-yard run in the first quarter and then ending his night with a 29-yard TD connection with Jalen Brooks in the third on a pass that required a little finesse to loft it over the defender. The Cowboys traded for Milton to be their new No. 2 quarterback behind Dak Prescott, and this showing may have done enough to reassure the team that the 2024 sixth-round pick is ready to handle the job.
