** Cowboys Eyeing Former Vols QB Joe Milton in Potential Trade Shake-Up**
A new NFL quarterback carousel could be spinning soon—with **former Tennessee star Joe Milton** at the center. After ESPN’s **Jeremy Fowler** linked the **Dallas Cowboys** to Milton last week, 105.3 The Fan’s **Bryan Broaddus** confirmed the team’s interest, signaling a possible move for the Patriots backup.
### **Why the Buzz?**
– Milton flashed potential in New England’s 2024 finale (241 pass yards, 2 TDs vs. Buffalo).
– The Patriots’ signing of **fellow ex-Vol Josh Dobbs** as Drake Maye’s primary backup fueled trade speculation.
– Dallas is reportedly weighing a **Day 3 pick** (likely a fifth-rounder) to acquire Milton.
### **Patriots’ Dilemma**
New England seems reluctant to deal Milton but could leverage training camp injuries for better compensation. As Broaddus noted:
> *”If they trade him now, it’s probably for a 2025 fifth-rounder. But waiting could net a stronger 2026 pick.”*
### **What’s Next?**
With Dallas exploring options and Milton’s arm talent in demand, this **offseason chess match** might end with the strong-armed QB in a **Cowboys uniform by 2025**.
**Will Jerry Jones pull the trigger? Or will Bill Belichick hold firm?** Stay tuned. #NFL #Vols
