With Prescott missing multiple weeks due to a thumb injury, Rush stepped up and put together a 4-1-0 quarterback record. Although Prescott is healthy again and expected to start right from the get-go of the new season, Rush is someone who continues to impress, even <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/cowboys/2023/08/08/cowboys-owner-jerry-jones-pleased-with-cooper-rush-excited-to-see-mazi-smith-in-preseason/" rel="noopener">catching the attention</a> of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.</p><p><i>“Really pleased with how 10 is playing,”</i> Jones said about Rush, per Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News. <i> “Really pleased with how he’s doing. I’m not going to say taken up, but he’s shown up in a way that reflects and embellishes how well he played for the team last year.”</i></p><p>Cooper’s outstanding job at keeping the Cowboys’ heads above water during the absence of Dak Prescott played a big role in his earning a two-year, $5 million contract with the Cowboys last March.</p><p>In nine games, including five starts, for the Cowboys last year, Rush passed for 1,051 yards and five touchdowns with three interceptions, while completing 58.0 percent of his throws. Those aren’t eye-popping numbers, but he was a steady presence in the pocket for Dallas, which averaged 26.8 points per game and 354.8 total yards per contest, fourth and 10th in the NFL, respectively, last season.</p><p>Jones and Cowboys fans can get to see more of Rush in the preseason, with Dak Prescott <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-dak-prescott-gets-brutally-honest-on-trevon-diggs-incident" rel="noopener">unlikely to be used</a> in any of the upcoming games against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Seattle Seahawks, and Las Vegas Raiders.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Spending the first half of his rookie season on the practice squad, the Central Michigan product was elevated to the active roster in November. Though seldom used, he served as the team’s backup quarterback for the remainder of the season.</p><p>In 2018, Rush returned to the practice squad before being promoted to the active roster for the final three games of the season. Rush was then released by the Cowboys at the end of the 2019 preseason, before being re-signed to the team’s practice squad later in the season.</p><p>An accurate quarterback praised for his decision-making and football IQ, Rush’s most notable season was in 2022, when he won four straight games for the Cowboys after Prescott suffered a significant thumb injury. He went 4-1 in Prescott’s absence, throwing for 1,020 yards in six games (including the Week 1 game that Prescott suffered the injury in). He also threw for five touchdowns while recording a 58.7 quarterback rating for the season.</p><p>Aside from Prescott and Rush, 27-year-old quarterback Will Grier is the only other quarterback currently only the Cowboys’ roster. However, drafted in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft, Grier is a dual-threat quarterback that should battle with Rush in training camp for the backup quarterback role.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But no matter how well he plays, it’s hard to imagine him permanently dethroning Dak Prescott as the starter once the two-time Pro Bowler returns from injury.</p><p>On that front, the Cowboys’ franchise QB has reportedly been making significant strides. <a href="https://twitter.com/GehlkenNFL/status/1580221999288266752">According to Cowboys reporter Michael Gehlken</a>, Dak Prescott is set to resume the most fundamental of QB drills at practice – throwing.</p><p>“Cowboys QB Prescott will begin today’s practice throwing to side in rehab group — his first day of throwing since Sept. 11 thumb fracture. Then QB school before some light throwing to receivers at end of practice.”</p><p>While the initial timetable brought optimism that Dak Prescott could be ready as early as Week 5, it looks like Cooper Rush will at least keep the starting spot through Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles – a monumental matchup that Prescott surely would’ve wished to be a part of. But <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1580222895569399813">according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter</a>, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy was adamant on preparations pointing towards Rush at QB for the divisional clash.</p><p>“Cowboys’ HC Mike McCarthy told reporters today that Dallas is ‘preparing for Cooper (Rush) to start against the Eagles.'”</p><p>After a brutal Week 1 loss and the injury to Dak Prescott, the Cowboys looked out of the race with the season barely even beginning. Cooper Rush <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-cooper-rush-enters-nfl-lore-not-even-tom-brady-aaron-rodgers-were-able-to-reach/">has magically kept the team not just afloat</a>, but undefeated since then.</p><p>However, the team is at its best with Dak Prescott at QB firing on all cylinders and apparently not even the best-case scenario for Rush is enough to convince the team’s decision-makers otherwise. That, and the $40 million per year that they pay him as well.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
