In the last two games Lance has been active, he’s completed four passes for 21 yards and thrown an interception. His defining moment thus far as a Cowboy has been throwing five interceptions in the 2024 preseason finale.

Jones also disagreed with the notion that perhaps the Cowboys overestimated Lance’s readiness when they acquired him.
