Milton’s Development Won’t Pause | Dallas Cowboys News

Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer is making it clear: Joe Milton’s development won’t be sidelined just because he’s on the practice squad. He’s pushing for reps for Milton—even if Sam Howell is the primary backup—drawing from his own experience with Rich Gannon in Kansas City to ensure backups stay sharp. Schottenheimer sees no real divide between active and practice squad players; everyone’s part of the team family, and that mindset is key to building a culture of inclusion and growth. Milton, who was waived then re-signed after clearing waivers, showed promise in preseason with over 370 yards and three touchdowns, and last year he even started a few games as the No. 2 QB. The Cowboys are committed to nurturing talent like Milton’s, regardless of roster status, keeping him engaged and developing every step of the way.
