Another preseason start on deck
Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Milton will start Friday's preseason finale against Atlanta, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schottenheimer said a decision between Milton and Will Grier as the top backup to Dak Prescott, who will rest for a third straight game Friday, hasn't yet been made, per Machota. The head coach also acknowledged Milton's inconsistent showing during Saturday's exhibition loss to Baltimore in which he completed nine of 18 passes for 122 yards, zero touchdowns and one interception, but he said that blame is owed to the entire offense, not just the quarterback, for failing to find a rhythm. In any case, it looks like the level of play Milton puts on tape during Friday's game will be crucial in determining his role to begin the 2025 regular season.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Patriots selected Milton in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, and while the Tennessee is no immediate threat to the depth chart standing of either veteran Jacoby Brissett or fellow rookie Drake Maye, the 6-5, 246-pounder is an intriguing developmental QB thanks to his impressive arm strength.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not locked in as QB2?
Milton may not yet have the backup quarterback role sewn up after a pair of poor preseason showings, per Todd Archer of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Milton has thrown an interception in each of Dallas' first two preseason games while producing only 265 passing yards on 47 passes for an unimpressive average of 5.6 yards per attempt. The offseason trade acquisition has been getting second-team reps behind Dak Prescott in practice consistently, but Archer believes the team could benefit from giving Will Grier an opportunity to win the backup job over the athletic yet raw Milton.
