Cowboys Confirm No Interest in Former Giants QB Daniel Jones

The Dallas Cowboys have confirmed they will not pursue former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, who was released earlier this week. Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones stated, “No, I think we’re in good shape at our quarterback spot,” following speculation that the team might sign Jones after a disappointing season for the Cowboys following Dak Prescott’s season-ending injury.

Jones, who had been the Giants’ starting quarterback for six seasons, was let go after struggling this season, finishing with a 2-8 record and seven interceptions. His tenure included a notable contract extension signed in March 2023, which has left many in shock at how quickly his situation changed. Upon requesting his release, the Giants honored his wish, with team owner John Mara expressing disappointment in the overall outcome of Jones’ career with the franchise.

Following Jones’ release, he briefly appeared on the Cowboys’ online roster, leading to rumors of a potential signing just before the upcoming Thanksgiving game against the Giants. However, the Cowboys quickly removed the player card, clarifying it was an error and not indicative of any ongoing negotiations.

The Cowboys are currently relying on backup Cooper Rush, who has faced challenges during his time as a starter. While some analysts suggested that adding Jones might improve the team’s situation, the Cowboys appear committed to examining what they have in both Rush and fellow backup Trey Lance as they navigate a difficult season marked by a disappointing 3-7 record.

As Jones enters the free agency market, he awaits a new opportunity, but his past struggles against Dallas — where he holds a 1-8 record and a QB rating of just 74.1 — make his potential fit with the Cowboys unlikely. The Cowboys will continue to move forward with their current quarterback lineup as they prepare for the second half of the season.
