Ryan Tannehill is still a FA

The moment Lance is moved to the PS he will be signed by another quarterback desperate team to be their second or third quarterback on their active roster (to justify the PS signing).

We have a veteran backup already in Rush.

If the Cowboys were not happy or confident in Rush then they would simply replace him with another player rather than sign a backup for the backup quarterback.

This team better go get a running back before they start looking for a 4th qb lol.

We have like 14 running backs maybe Roger will make an exception and let us an extra one without getting flagged for too many players? Like put 13 on the field kind of thing

Why didn't they try to take him last year? Never thought about this happening, so we really have to keep all 3 on the game day??

Basically. I never thought the guy was that good to begin with. Not a bad QB but just a guy.

RT was a decent QB who needed a strong running game to be effective. And he rode that running game all the way to an AFC championship game in 2019. Tannehill isn’t as good as Dak, but his FO knew he needed a running game to be effective.

Lance was on the active roster every week last season but was usually listed on the "inactive" list but designated as the emergency quarterback in case they lost both Prescott and Rush in a game.

So Lance was on the 53 active player list but not one of the 48 active players on game days.

They kept Vaughn on the active roster last year but listed as "inactive" some games last season to avoid other teams signing him during weeks when they did not need him active.

Doesnt sound like he would fit in well here with one of the worst running games in the league lol.

The OP said, "Perhaps we could move Lance to the PS, and bring in Tannehill as our 3rd string QB?" which is the topic of the thread that I replied to.

I responded that if the Cowboys move Lance to the Practice Squad (which he was not on at all last year) that a quarterback desperate team would sign him to their active roster as their #2 or #3 quarterback.

Or, perhaps they could put Tannehill on the PS?
 
I would bet some guys like Tannehill would rather retire than bounce around as a backup. Ego of sorts after being a starter for 90%+ of his career.
Got paid big twice.

Probably would pick up the phone if a starter was lost for the season.
 
Completely forgot about him. He's good enough to be a backup somewhere. On another note, I saw the Falcons signed Nathan Peterman to their practice squad, how the hell is that guy still in the league?

He has to be a relative of a NFL owner or Goodell lol.
