Stephen Jones says not to expect definitive statement on Cowboys’ QB situation
The Dallas Cowboys sound like they’re going to go week-to-week on the team’s quarterback situation.
With Dak Prescott continuing to impress and Tony Romo nearing full health, executive vice president Stephen Jones told PFT Live on Friday not to expect any grand proclamation about who will play quarterback for Dallas for the remainder of the season.
“I don’t think it’s needed,” Jones said of such a proclamation, via Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk. “I think Jason [Garrett’s] messaging with our team is, ‘We’re gonna worry about this week each day and get better to work on beating the Pittsburgh Steelers and we’ll worry about next week when that rolls around.’
“I can certainly see that a lot of people out there in the media would love a proclamation but I don’t think that’s coming. We’ve just got a great situation here that we’re lucky to have and we’ve got a football team that really has good chemistry right now. Got two great quarterbacks that are great leaders and want what’s best for the football team. I just don’t think that’s an issue internally with our team, which is really the only thing that matters at this point.”
All indications are, however, that the job is Prescott’s. It’s hard to imagine Jones saying something like this if it wasn’t. There is, frankly, no real reason for the Cowboys to make some big announcement, but the writing is on the wall.
