FRISCO, Texas -- Unsurprisingly, the Dallas Cowboys will decline picking up the fifth-year option on quarterback Trey Lance, a source told ESPN.
That decision was essentially made last August when the Cowboys acquired Lance from the San Francisco 49ers for a 2024 fourth-round pick. Had the Cowboys picked up the option, it would have cost $22.4 million, been fully guaranteed and been at odds with the club's stated preference to keep Dak Prescott after 2024.
As it stands, the Cowboys do not have a quarterback on their roster signed beyond this season with Prescott, Lance and Cooper Rush set to hit unrestricted free agency next March.
