Garrett Gilbert has suddenly made a long and wildly unimpressive Dallas Cowboys quarterback carousel mushroom into a quarterback controversy, loosely stated, and even if it is for the right to lead a 2-7 team into the second half of a 2020 season torpedoed by injury and a myriad of other glaring factors. It's been an unmitigated disaster following the season-ending injury to Dak Prescott suffered in Week 5, and Andy Dalton has now missed the last two games after suffering a concussion and then having been placed on the COVID-19 list while trying to be cleared from the first injury.

It's undetermined if Dalton will be cleared to return from both concussion protocol and the COVID-19 list in Week 11, but it's likely he'll suit up, considering the fact he'll have two weeks before the Cowboys meet the Minnesota Vikings at US Bank Stadium. The story went on to say the problem for Dalton and the Cowboys is now clear, because they need to figure out if they'll return the keys to him after consistently hammering home their belief in him and accompanying salary, or if they'll ride with Gilbert.

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.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders will not play Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Jeff Skversky of ABC 6.

Sanders will miss his second consecutive game, this time against one of the worst defenses in the NFL.

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.

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy told reporters Friday that QB Andy Dalton has to practice Saturday in order to be considered available for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Dalton is currently in concussion protocol.

Do not expect Dalton to suit up Sunday. He would be a clear avoid with a patchwork Cowboys offensive line.
