Will Grier News
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Will Grier will be inactive in Week 1 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Grier was recently claimed off waivers from the Carolina Panthers and will compete with Cooper Rush for the No. 2 spot behind Dak Prescott throughout the season. Wide receiver Noah Brown, linebacker Luke Gifford, defensive ends Azur Kamara and Chauncey Golston and safeties Malik Hooker and Israel Mukuamu will also be inactive for Thursday's contest.
Quarterback Will Grier was claimed off waivers by the Cowboys. Grier, formerly of the Carolina Panthers, immediately enters the picture as the primary backup for starter Dak Prescott in Dallas. After somewhat surprisingly releasing presumed second string quarterback Garrett Gilbert earlier in the week, the Cowboys were left with just Cooper Rush in the quarterback room behind their starter. The team has reportedly shown interest in former Panthers and Patriots signal caller Cam Newton, and Grier would of course shift to third at best on the depth chart if Newton were signed. For now, Grier shouldn't have too hard of a time taking Rush's spot as Prescott's primary clipboard holder. As usual, the Cowboys will be in big trouble if Prescott can't stay on the field.
Carolina Panthers quarterback Will Grier failed to throw a touchdown during the loss to the Colts on Sunday but had no issues turning the ball over, either, as he ended the day with three interceptions. The rookie also logged 224 yards and did so while completing just 61.4 percent of his passes. Hopes were high for Grier after the team opted to name him the starter over Kyle Allen heading into this one, however, he didn't begin his career on a good note. With the team having nothing left to play for, he will likely get another chance to prove his worth in his first start at home against the Saints in Week 17.
