We have our first Dallas Cowboys 53-man roster after the team cut its group down on Sunday by the 6 p.m. ET deadline.We say "our first" 53-man roster because the group is going to be undergoing changes between now and the start of the season, and those changes could begin as soon as Monday.That's because all of the players who were cut on Sunday are either available in free agency or can be claimed on the waiver wire, which will lead to a frenzy of moves throughout the NFL.For now, we're focused on the Cowboys' initial group. Here are the biggest questions from it.Who is QB2?Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks Dak Prescott (4), Joe Milton (10) and Sam Howell (16) run at training camp at River Ridge Playing Fields.

The QB2 battle between Joe Milton and Sam Howell went back and forth, with head coach Brian Schottenheimer admitting it was "neck and neck."Howell seemed to be more consistent throughout training camp and he finished the preseason strong with a better showing than Milton in the finale, but Milton dazzled over the first two games before underperforming in Week 3.All that said, we still don't know who will be the first man off the bench if the worst happens and Dak Prescott gets hurt. We lean Howell because of his experience, but chances are this battle hasn't been totally settled yet and Dallas will take it up to the beginning of the season.Is a running back addition coming?Dallas Cowboys running back Malik Davis (20) scores for a touchdown against the Arizona Cardinals during the first half at State Farm Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectIt what was the biggest shocker of the Cowboys' 53-man roster cuts, the team did not keep Jaydon Blue, who seemed primed to make the cut throughout the entire offseason and at one point looked to be in position to win the RB2 role.Instead, Malik Davis won the job and the Cowboys decided to only keep two true running backs in Javonte Williams and Davis, and for now Hunter Luepke is the emergency option, although we know he's really a fullback.The Cowboys are going to add another running back on the practice squad. But will Dallas sign one to the 53-man roster? And, if so, will it be a significant enough addition to push Davis to RB3?We should know in due time.Is another addition coming at LB?Dallas Cowboys linebacker Jaishawn Barham (55) on defense during the first half against the New Orleans Saints at AT&T Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectThe Cowboys are going to add a linebacker on the practice squad, but is there another move coming on the 53-man roster?Dallas is carrying four linebackers currently, but the problem is that two of them are unproven in Jaishawn Barham and Shemar James, and we know DeMarvion Overshown is less than reliable given his injury history.This position seems primed for an addition on the 53-man roster, and we'd love to see Dallas sign Bobby Wagner to really shore up the position going into the season. We would also keep an eye on Tyrel Dodson, who was cut loose by the Miami Dolphins.Will Cowboys stick with 6 WRs?Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Camden Brown (6) catches a pass before the game against the New Orleans Saints at AT&T Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectEntering the offseason, the expectation was the Cowboys would only keep five wideouts, and that expectation lasted until Camden Brown happened in training camp and the preseason.The standout UDFA shined with no shortage of highlight plays both in training camp and exhibition play and he certainly deserved his spot on the 53-man roster.That said, keeping six wide receivers might be overkill because chances are Dallas will never get that far down the depth chart. Perhaps Brown's inclusion on the 53-man roster is temporary ahead of the waiver period on Monday. If the Cowboys do cut someone from the group, we'd prefer it be Jonathan Mingo.Regardless, the Georgia Southern product earned his place.— Sign up for the Cowboys Daily Digest newsletter for more free coverage from Dallas Cowboys on SI —Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
