The Cowboys waived quarterback Joe Milton on Monday, per Pro Football Talk and Yahoo Sports. The move came as a surprise, as Milton had survived Dallas' initial roster cuts the day before, according to Blogging The Boys.

Milton cleared waivers and became a free agent after a 24-hour waiting period, multiple outlets reported. Now eligible to sign with any team's practice squad, the third-year prospect is available on the open market. CBS Sports noted that the waiver move was part of a broader set of roster cuts by Dallas ahead of the 2026 season.
