The New England Patriots made a gamble when trading backup quarterback Joe Milton III, along with a seventh-round draft pick, to the Dallas Cowboys for a fifth-round pick.
They essentially moved a promising young quarterback with three years left on his rookie deal for virtually nothing. That decision initially upset some fans, even with all of the excitement surrounding the potential of starter Drake Maye. It seemed like the Patriots were jumping the gun on a move that didn't need to be made in the 2025 offseason.
So what has Milton looked like since the trade to Dallas?
