Milton Released, Cowboys Eye Practice Squad | Dallas Cowboys News

Joe Milton III, the Cowboys’ third quarterback, is now a free agent after being waived — a move that came after Dallas trimmed to 53 players and opted to keep only Dak Prescott and Sam Howell. Though he was initially slated for the practice squad, waivers forced his release since he didn’t qualify for immediate free agency. Rumors of him requesting release are false; the team actively explored trades before cutting roster. Despite a solid preseason showing and a trade from New England earlier this year, Milton hasn’t started a game yet. Meanwhile, Dallas filled their practice squad with 13 new signings, including Wanya Morris and Elijah Garcia, plus an international exemption spot.
