Cooper Rush has been a substitute field marshal for the Dak Prescott Dallas Cowboys for eight seasons (2017-24), and now his watch is over.
Rush is signing a two -year contract for a value of up to $ 12.2 million, including $ 4.2 million guaranteed, to join the Baltimore Ravens and support the twice MVP of the NFL Lamar Jackson on Sunday, according to ESPN. Equity Sports, Rush Agency, confirmed the agreement.
Why would Rush finally move away from Dallas after all the years? A reason could be the way in which the cowboys lacked respect at the end of the 2024 season. After starting all the games for Dallas after the tear of Ischiotibials of the Prescott season in week 9 in the Atlanta Falcons, the team began Trey Lance in week 18, What by chance by chance prevented him from hitting his full -time game incentive clause In your contract.

The Cowboys had 4-4 in the eight Rush openings between the 10-17 weeks, and completed 61.3% of their passes while they average 209.6 air yards per game. Rush 11-4 11-4 11-4 11-4 relationship of the weeks 10-17 was tied in 17 in the league with the 2024 MVP winner Josh Allen, but his pin rating in that section was only 86.6, 25 among the 32 quarters qualified from the league in this period.
After turning between Tyler Huntley and Josh Johnson as a support for Jackson in past years, Baltimore now has a backup with a recent initial experience. Prescott and Journeyman Will Grier are now the only field marshal on the cowboys list after Rush’s departure and with Lance remaining a free agent. This now increases the chances of Dallas to use one of its 10 selections in the NFL 2025 draft in a quarterback to develop and support Prescott, which will be 32 years old at the beginning of the 2025 season.
