“Now starting to get the timing with the routes," McCarthy said. "…He’s close to being a master of the system. He has a really high understanding. …He just needs as many reps as he can.” It appears he could work his way into the backup role behind Dak Prescott as of now.

The Cowboys declined the fifth-year option on Trey Lance.

This was the expectation for Lance. He figures to remain in the same backup role he was in last season with the Cowboys.

Trey Lance has reportedly been rumored to be linked to the Vikings.

This is if Kirk Cousins decides to leave in free agency. Lance, who is from Minnesota, had his roster bonus picked up by the Cowboys. It is still likely a longshot to happen, but this could be something to monitor if Cousins signs with a new team.

The Cowboys are picking up the $4.25 million roster bonus for Trey Lance.

Lance is not expected to have his fifth-year team option picked up for the 2025 season. He should remain in a backup role behind Dak Prescott for the Cowboys.

Lance will serve as the emergency third quarterback and would enter the game if Dak Prescott and Cooper Rush were to both suffer an injury. Fantasy managers can comfortably leave Lance on the waiver wire.
