Matt Mosely, co-host of the Afternoon Show with Cowlishaw and Mosley, participated in a Q&A where he was asked if "the Cowboys backup quarterback for Week 1 (is) on the roster right now? If not, who do you think is the best option out there?"
"I think I just answered this one, but I'll also add Matt Hasselbeck to the list. He just joined ESPN...but he could put that gig off for six more months. I liked what he did for Indy. He would be a better option than a lot of these other guys."
Hasselbeck announced his retirement shortly after the 2015 season ended, having served as the Colts and Andrew Luck's backup for three seasons.
With Luck out for a large part of the season, Hasselbeck help guide the Colts to an 8-8 record, completing over 60 percent of his passes for 1,690 yards nine touchdowns and five interceptions in just eight games.
