Milton completed eight of 15 passes for 92 yards and rushed twice for two yards in Friday's 27-24 preseason loss to the Saints.
Milton started and played the first half of Friday's preseason finale. Sam Howell was sharper in the second half, throwing for 155 yards and two TDs. It remains to be seen whether the 26-year-old Milton or the 25-year-old Howell will be named the top backup to Dak Prescott heading into the regular season.
