The Dallas Cowboys are satisfied with the current quarterback room, even with a potential upgrade available in free agency.
When asked about the possibility of signing former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones following his release from the team on Friday, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones shot down rumors, saying the team is already "in good shape" at quarterback, per Jon Machota of The Athletic.
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy also expressed that Dallas is currently focusing on the players already on the roster.
"I've never really been in the business of looking at players based off the team they are released from, especially with the timing of the next game," McCarthy said, per Machota. "He was a prospect I really liked coming out, but we kind of have our head down right now and really focused on working with the guys we have here."
The Cowboys lost starting quarterback Dak Prescott for the season on Nov. 3 with a hamstring injury. Backup Cooper Rush has thrown for 566 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions in Prescott's absence, with Dallas dropping both games.
Jones would be an upgrade over Rush, as he threw for 2,070 yards with eight touchdowns and seven interceptions prior to his release. Still, Dallas is just 3-7 and would need a miracle to reach the postseason, so adding Jones may not be enough of a needle mover.
It looks like McCarthy and the Cowboys will see what Rush and backup Trey Lance can do this season while Jones will look elsewhere for his next opportunity.
