Will Grier - Page 7 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

To get two quarters Saturday Owner Jerry Jones said Grier will handle "at least two quarters" during Saturday's preseason contest at the Chargers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Dak Prescott not slated to play, Cooper Rush is getting the start at quarterback for the Cowboys before handing off the offense to Grier. It will mark Grier's first action of the exhibition season, as he missed the team's first preseason game due to a minor groin strain. Once Rush and Grier are done for the day, Ben DiNucci will be under center, likely for most of the fourth quarter.

Back at practice Grier (groin) returned to practice this week, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 27-year-old quarterback has played in only two NFL games since being drafted by Carolina in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft, but Grier was looking good in training camp before suffering a minor groin strain. Given Cooper Rush's shaky performance in Dallas' preseason opener, the door is still open for Grier to emerge as the team's No. 2 QB to begin the season behind Dak Prescott.

Third option at quarterback Grier has been rotated in as the Cowboys' third-string quarterback during mandatory minicamp this past week, Mickey Spagnola of the team's official site reports.

Impact Grier was placed on injured reserve with an undisclosed injury in January after failing to find the field during his first season with the Cowboys. The 2019 third-round pick has logged just two games in his NFL career, throwing for 228 yards and four interceptions on 28-of-52 passing as a rookie in Carolina. Grier's current standing on Dallas' depth chart suggests that he will continue to compete for a spot on the team's final 53-man roster this offseason.
