Cowboys' 'goal' is to draft a QB as Trey Lance, Cooper Rush head for free agency
In 2023, the Dallas Cowboys took a flier on quarterback Trey Lance. They traded a 2024 fourth-round draft pick to the San Francisco 49ers (which became safety Malik Mustapha) for the former No. 3 pick in the 2021 draft. In a third-string role, Lance mainly watched from the sidelines. He got his first start for the Cowboys in their final game of the season, completing 20 of 34 passes for 244 yards.
