Cowboys to start 2nd-year QB with a rocket for an arm against Ravens in 2nd preseason game

Baltimore's secondary is much improved, and the players in the lineup will face a player who throws the deep ball exceptionally well on Saturday. Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Thursday that Joe Milton (elbow) will start Saturday's preseason game against the Ravens, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Milton exited Dallas' preseason opener against the Rams last weekend due to an elbow injury. Still, he's recovered and won't miss any action as he attempts to lock down the backup quarterback job behind Dak Prescott. The second-year quarterback completed 17 of 29 passes for 143 yards, one touchdown, and one interception versus Los Angeles before being replaced by Will Grier, while also rushing five times for 22 yards.
