"Howell may not bring a wealth of regular-season experience to the table, but it's still exponentially more than Dallas had in Grier and Milton. Howell started one game as a rookie in Washington in 2022, then all 17 games the following season."
"Combined, Grier and Milton have 105 career passing attempts, and many of those in garbage time. Howell has 645, and the majority of them came in fully competitive moments."
"The Cowboys enjoyed that for several years with Cooper Rush as Prescott's primary backup. He went 9-5 as a starter from 2021-2024, with his 4-1 record in 2022 crucial to keeping the Cowboys alive in a playoff race."
The Cowboys upgraded their quarterback position by signing Sam Howell and releasing Will Grier. Howell has more experience than Grier and Joe Milton III, having started 17 games in 2023. Grier and Milton combined have only 105 career passing attempts. Howell's experience in competitive situations may provide the Cowboys with a reliable backup, especially considering Prescott's injury history. The Cowboys previously relied on Cooper Rush, who performed well in Prescott's absence, highlighting the importance of having a dependable backup quarterback.
