The Dallas Cowboys traded for Joe Milton III from the New England Patriots. The trade occurred on April 3, 2025, with the Cowboys sending a 2025 fifth-round pick to the Patriots in exchange for Milton and a 2025 seventh-round pick. This move was made to bolster their quarterback depth behind starter Dak Prescott after losing Cooper Rush to free agency. Milton, a 2024 sixth-round draft pick, had shown promise in limited action, particularly in a Week 18 game against the Buffalo Bills where he threw for 241 yards and two touchdowns.
Milton is supposed to be the backup, but if that guy balls out then Dak Prescott better start getting nervous. It's not like Dak has ever won anything, so the goofballs in Dallas really have nothing else to lose at this point.
