In the match of the preseason tournament, which took place on September 10, 2025, the new quarterback Dallas Cowboys Joe Milton showed an ambiguous result in the game against Los Angeles Rams, where the team suffered a defeat with a score of 31-21.
In the first half, Milton tried to attack actively, but completed the first six attempts with only two successful passes for one yard. As a result, he rated his performance as a "D" or "D-". "I need to be more consistent and execute all the throws," Milton noted.
Despite the difficulties, the team believes in his potential. Milton finished the game with 17 of 29 passes, 143 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, while also adding 22 yards on the ground.
Coach Brian Schottenheimer emphasized that such games are important for Milton's development, as he still lacks significant experience in real matches. "This is great experience for Joe, and he can improve his game with each match," he said.
Moreover, before the match, Stephen Jones, the general manager of the team, confirmed that the starting back Micah Parsons will remain on the team, despite his request for a trade. "We are counting on his participation in the upcoming season," noted Jones.
Additionally, the team is working to resolve issues with injuries in the lineup, where there are key players missing, such as Trevon Diggs and Sheldon Reeve. The Cowboys hope that the young players will be able to fill these gaps during the upcoming matches.
