Max Duggan met with the Dallas Cowboys during the NFL Combine

Max Duggan said his meeting with the Dallas Cowboys went very well during the NFL Combine.

“I get to meet with them and just go over some stuff, get to know me, get to know them, go over some ball, just start building that relationship,” Duggan said. “I thought it was a good meeting.”

The Cowboys are coming off back-to-back 12-5 seasons but faulted out in the playoffs to the San Francisco 49ers both seasons.

The team has Dak Prescott under center and in the midst of a long-term contract. But backup quarterback is a potential position of need for the team. Duggan would be open to fulfilling such a role.

“It’d be really exciting to be able to go learn obviously in Dallas with Coach McCarthy and learn under Dak and learn how to be a pro and everything he’s done to be successful,” Duggan said.
