In other words, Trey, if you impress us, we'll keep you and trade Cooper.

If you don't, we'll be cutting you to save the $5m, unless you're willing to re-work some things.

This is what any reasonable person had anticipated and hoped for when the trade was made.

Anyone who thought that Lance had even a remote chance of going to pretty much any team in the league and have a real shot at starting was living in a dream.

I’m looking forward to what he can do with his second chance.

They have their sights set that low for him? That is unfortunate.
What do you expect when he couldn’t even win the backup job in San Francisco? Pretty hard to have your sights set high for him after his stint with the 49ers.

Technically he did not win the 3rd spot in SF and was traded.

All I remember was that he didn’t win the backup job. San Francisco kept three QBs on their roster in 2023. From what was reported here he didn’t want to be the third QB.

That does not mean the Niners had to trade him.
Especially after everything they gave up to get him. They were more than happy to get him off their roster.

Add he was still the 3rd QB in Dallas.

Trey Lance was recovering from a major knee injury. Purdy won the job and was a better fit to their offensive scheme than Lance. It was the right choice for the 49ers, Purdy has taken them to an NFC title game and Superbowl in 2 years. Far more success than Dak has since joining the league.

No franchise would have kept their 1st round QB as a backup after deciding to go with the other guy. The RG3 v Kirk Cousins dilemma.

how did Dak do in the CCG and SB? Taking your to OT and scoring first in OT is crap, if that was Dak it would have been a magical performance and the defense lost the game. Any body here believe Dak and the Cowboys score more than 6 points in that game? It’s ok to be a Dak Stan but come on Purdy has accomplished more in 2 years than Dak in 8, sorry just the way it is to this point.
