2026 Cowboys Preseason Week 3 Gameday Chatter Thread | Saints @ Cowboys | 08/28/2026

Preseason was fun but I'm ready to see the starting Oline, Dak, Lamb, Pickens, Flournoy and Williams. I'm ready to see what this defense looks like with the starters. It's been an entertaining preseason but now we won't see much of most these guys.

Wouldn't the other team pick up that guarantee? Or was it a signing bonus?

Good question, I assume signing bonus.

Also, radio says Loofa broke his forearm. Damn. But he'll definitely stay now... I think. Unless they just waive him injured.

Nah he should be IR’d

I thought Milton and Howell both looked decent/good thru the preseason. If I had to pick only one, I think I’d pick Howell for a backup. But I wouldn’t hate keeping both of them or even just Milton.

 

[NoDak]

Maybe Milton wins this job but then it’s because we have the best QB situation we have ever had.

Best QB situation we've ever had?

I think I'd prefer Staubach, White, and DeBerg/Carano. But that might just be me.

So from I'm seeing it's 2.5 mil with a 500,000 signing bonus as part of that.

So if we cut him and someone picks him off waivers I think we are just on the hook for 500,000. Now the 2 mil portion of that is fully guaranteed but that doesn't really matter to me if you're putting him on the practice squad. If a team picks him off waivers they are on the hook for the contract that hasn't been paid which would be the 2 mil. Anyway, I think that all sounds like pretty small peanuts.
