Dalton is expected to start in Week 11 even though many who follow the team seem to think the team would be much better off going with Gilbert, who kept the Cowboys in the game against the Steelers in Week 9.

The Cowboys plan to give Garrett Gilbert and Cooper Rush reps in practice and pick one of them at week’s end to start at QB against the Steelers.

The big news is it won’t be rookie DiNucci, who struggled Sunday night against the Eagles. As Pelissero added, the Cowboys are playing to experience at the position. We'll continue to monitor heading into Week 9, but it's probably safe to assume much of the same no matter who is named the starter, if not mostly because of the tough matchup against the Steelers. It continues to be a big downgrade for players like Elliott, Cooper and Gallup.

The Dallas Cowboys will be without quarterback Andy Dalton for a second straight game but not because of the concussion he sustained two weeks ago. Dalton will be placed on the reserve/COVID 19 list on Tuesday.

That will knock him out of Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to multiple sources, Archer went on to say. DiNucci gets a terrible matchup against Pittsburgh's defense this week. It could be a slow-go for any Cowboy fantasy player this week.

Cowboys QB Andy Dalton is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Dalton remains in concussion protocol.

Dalton was expected to miss Week 8, so this designation is no surprise.
