The Dallas Cowboys have entered a new chapter with head coach Brian Schottenheimer at the helm. With offseason acquisitions like George Pickens, the offense looks promising, but one trade has sparked more headlines than most: the addition of quarterback Joe Milton from the Patriots. Cowboys Trade for Joe Milton Amid Quarterback Shakeup The Cowboys sent a 2025 fifth-round pick to the Patriots for Milton, originally drafted in the sixth round in 2024. They also received a seventh-round pick in return. With Cooper Rush leaving for Baltimore, Dallas needed a capable backup behind Dak Prescott, and Milton offered youth and upside. However, some reports raised red flags. NFL insider Greg Bedard, speaking on the Greg Bedard Patriots Podcast, relayed concerns from inside the New England organization. Schottenheimer Defends Milton’s Character and Fit Despite the rumors, Schottenheimer sees no cause for concern. In fact, his early impressions of Milton have been overwhelmingly positive. Schottenheimer emphasized Milton has been a “model teammate” and is showing none of the attitude issues alleged by former Patriots personnel. The Cowboys are clearly standing behind their new quarterback, confident that whatever happened in New England won’t carry over into Dallas.

Golf has produced legends who lived up to their hype, and others who didn’t. While talent, charisma, and marketability can take a player far in terms of fame, true greatness is measured by performance in high-stakes moments, especially the majors. In this list, we’re looking at golfers whose reputations, endorsements, or media coverage far exceeded their actual career achievements. Let’s see the five most overrated golfers in modern golf history. 5. Sergio García Sergio spent nearly two decades being hailed as golf’s next great Spaniard after Seve Ballesteros. He finally captured a major (The Masters in 2017), but for years his short game and mental lapses defined his career. He underachieved relative to the lofty expectations set early on. 4. David Duval David Duval reached world No. 1 and won The Open Championship in 2001, but his peak was shockingly short. Injuries and inconsistency derailed what could’ve been a legendary career. Though immensely talented, the hype around him lasted longer than his dominance did. 3. Ian Poulter Known more for his Ryder Cup passion than actual tour wins, Ian Poulter built a brand around his fiery competitiveness. While he delivered clutch moments in team play, his individual resume lacks substance. No majors, few PGA Tour victories, and yet his name often came up in “elite” conversations. 2. Colin Montgomerie Monty dominated the European Tour, winning the Order of Merit eight times, but he never won a major. For years, he was heralded as one of the world’s best, yet his inability to perform under major pressure kept him from greatness on the global stage. His Ryder Cup heroics are legendary, but in the majors? Underwhelming. 1. Rickie Fowler No golfer in recent memory has received as much endorsement and fanfare with so few major wins. Rickie Fowler was once dubbed the “next big thing,” especially after his flashy performances and marketability. Despite being a fan favorite and ranking in the world top 10, he still hasn’t won a major. His popularity has always outpaced his performance. Golf is as much a mental game as it is physical. And while these players showed flashes of brilliance and earned plenty of attention, their overall careers didn’t quite match the hype. Whether due to pressure, inconsistency, or just missed chances, these names will spark debate among fans, but that’s what makes Golf so great.
