Rodgers: Cowboys have standing trade offer for QB Mike Glennon

Mike Glennon is currently a name on the Dallas Cowboys' radar.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers backup quarterback had his job taken from him when Jameis Winston was drafted No. 1 overall in 2015. Since then, he's been paired in trade discussions with several teams in the league including the Cowboys, but the Buccaneers have been sitting tight.
According to 247Sports insider Luke Rodgers, the Cowboys have a standing offer on the table for Glennon if the Buccaneers decide to trade him. Rodgers' source informed him that the Cowboys attempted to trade their 2016 third-round pick and 2017 third-round pick to the Bucs to acquire Glennon on draft day.
The Arizona Cardinals also recently attempted to land Glennon, per Rodgers. The NFC West team tried to sling a second-round pick for the quarterback before the start of the draft.
In early April, Glennon was tabbed as a backup quarterback who could entice the Cowboys. The 6-foot-6 quarterback was the third-round selection of the Bucs in 2013 and has thrown for 4,025 yards and 29 touchdowns with 15 interceptions in two seasons of play. Yet, the Buccaneers never bought into Glennon as they played Josh McCown in 2014 and drafted Winston the following year.
Glennon is now on the last year of his rookie contract and is due $1.5 million.
The Cowboys currently have four quarterbacks under contract on their roster and seem content with going through OTAs and mandatory minicamp to figure out if they can make due behind Tony Romo. But with the news of a standing offer on the table for Glennon, it seems the Cowboys value the Bucs backup more than what they have on their current roster.
