It doesn’t look as though another Jones will be coming to the Cowboys.
So far, backup Cooper Rush has been unable to lead the Cowboys to a win since Prescott went down; Dallas is next-to-last in the NFC East with a 3-7 record, only one game better than the 2-8 New York Giants
Speaking of the Giants, they decided to part ways with quarterback Daniel Jones, who requested his release. But that doesn’t mean that he can expect a call from the Cowboys, according to Dallas CEO Stephen Jones.
“No, I think we’re in good shape at our quarterback spot,” Stephen Jones said according to beat writer Jon Machota via X. “We think Cooper (Rush) gives us the best chance to win right now. And certainly we still want to see some. We’ll kind of see how the season goes here.
“We still really want to see (Trey) Lance and like what he brings to the table. And then, of course, long term, we all know we made our commitment to Dak (Prescott) for the long term.”
The Cowboys face the Washington Commanders on Sunday before facing the Giants at AT&T Stadium for their annual Thanksgiving Day game.
QB Daniel Jones will have to find another NFL team besides the Cowboys to play for
According to Giants owner John Mara, the two sides mutually agreed to part ways after Jones requested his release, via NFL.com.
“Daniel came to see me this morning and asked if we would release him,” owner John Mara said in a statement. “We mutually agreed that would be best for him and for the team. Daniel has been a great representative of our organization, first class in every way. His handling of this situation yesterday exemplifies just that.
We are all disappointed in how things have worked out. We hold Daniel in high regard and have a great appreciation for him. We wish him nothing but the best in the future.”
Jones finishes his career with the Giants having racked up 14,582 passing yards, 70 touchdowns, 2,179 rushing yards, and a record of 24-44-1.
