"A 2019 third-round pick by the Panthers, Grier had been with the Cowboys organization for the past year-plus. He spent the final two months of the 2024 season on the practice squad (before a late-season promotion), and he remained on the taxi squad for the entirety of the 2025 campaign."
"There was initially some hope that he'd compete with for the QB2 gig behind in 2026. However, that opportunity quickly came to an end when the Cowboys signed to be their primary backup at the position. That made Grier expendable."
"The QB got a two-game look with the Panthers as a rookie, going winless while completing 28 of his 52 pass attempts for 228 yards and four interceptions. He lasted one more year in Carolina before getting cut, and that led to his first stint with the Cowboys."
The Dallas Cowboys cut quarterback Will Grier as part of their quarterback depth chart reorganization. Grier, a 2019 third-round pick by the Panthers, had been with the Cowboys organization for over a year. He spent the final two months of the 2024 season on the practice squad before a late-season promotion and remained on the taxi squad throughout 2025. Initially, there was hope Grier would compete for the QB2 position behind the starter in 2026. However, the Cowboys signed another quarterback as their primary backup, eliminating Grier's opportunity and making him expendable. Grier's NFL career includes stints with multiple teams including the Panthers, Cowboys, Bengals, Patriots, Chargers, and Eagles.
