Cowboys QB Battle Neck and Neck

Head coach Brian Schottenheimer described the backup QB competition as 'neck and neck' after both Sam Howell and Joe Milton performed well in the first two preseason games. Howell started against Seattle while Milton played the second half, and they switched roles against the Cardinals. truewildslot.com

'If you would just take the training camp competition, it's probably neck and neck, and Sam maybe a little bit ahead,' Schottenheimer said. The Cowboys prefer not to use either QB during the regular season, but with Dak Prescott's injury history, the backup competition could be crucial. The team will make final roster decisions on August 30.
