The talk of the town regarding the Dallas Cowboys has been centered on who will be their next head coach after parting ways with Mike McCarthy. However, the team also faces several important decisions,

Sunday was the first time Lance saw significant snaps since landing in Dallas ahead of the 2023 season. In August 2023, the Cowboys sent a 2024 fourth-round draft pick to the 49ers for Lance. San Francisco originally selected the quarterback at No. 3 overall in 2021.

Trey Lance has started at quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys against the Washington Commanders. It's his first in the regular season since San Francisco’s third overall pick from the 2021 draft was still with the 49ers.

Lance played on two FCS championship teams at North Dakota State and was named the 2020 FCS Championship Game MVP, but he started only 17 games in his three years with the Bison. He finished his college career with a perfect 17-0 record, 2,947 yards passing, 30 touchdowns, and one interception. On the ground, Lance added 1,325 yards and 18 scores.

The Dallas Cowboys are heading into 2025 in a strange place. Jerry Jones and company opted to move on from Mike McCarthy despite him leading the Cowboys to three-straight 12-win seasons and somehow finding a way to finish just below .

With Cooper Rush entering free agency and the Cowboys expected to move on from Trey Lance, Marcus Mariota just makes sense. The former Heisman winner has entered the phase of his career where he’s become a solid backup. Teams can count on Mariota to play when needed and keep the team competitive in place of their starter.
