Schottenheimer Wants Milton Back | Dallas Cowboys News

Dallas Cowboys chose Sam Howell as their backup QB behind Dak Prescott, releasing Joe Milton — but head coach Brian Schottenheimer is pushing hard to bring Milton back on the practice squad if he clears waivers. Schottenheimer called it “absolutely” when asked if he wanted Milton back, citing Howell’s superior execution in key areas as the reason for the decision. Milton, a sixth-round draft pick with elite arm talent, remains a favorite of Schottenheimer’s, who believes in his development potential. Now it’s up to GM Jerry Jones and the team’s waiver claim window — if no other team claims Milton, Dallas could reunite with him to continue building for the future.
