Cowboys star enjoys internet's roast of Joe Milton's non-stop fastball

Joe Milton III found himself getting roasted by the internet for not knowing when to take heat off his fastball, and one Dallas Cowboys star was enjoying the fun.

There is no denying Joe Milton III's arm talent. The Dallas Cowboys backup quarterback has one of the strongest arms in the entire NFL, and it was fully on display during the team's preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams in Week One.

Unfortunately, Milton knows his arm strength and tends to go all gas, no brakes. As Brian Schottenheimer said after the preseason opener, "There's times that you got to kind of throw a little bit of a change up."

Milton sailed the ball over the heads of wide open receivers on several occasions, which led to social media doing what it does best and launching an all-out roast session.

Several memes were joking about Milton's misfirings, and Cowboys defensive back Juanyeh Thomas was enjoying the show. He reposted one of the tweets about Milton's fastball and shared his reaction with a classic Michael Jordan meme.

Jokes are always more fun when you're in on them, so hopefully Milton was enjoying some of the commentary as well.

After the game, Milton came out with a brutally honest assessment of his own performance and acknowledged what he needs to work on.
