After seven seasons with the Dallas Cowboys, Cooper Rush has found a new home in Baltimore serving as Lamar Jackson’s backup. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network announced this morning that Rush has agreed to terms with the Ravens on a two-year, up to $12.2 million dollar deal.
Rush started a ton of games over the last few years filling in for an injured Dak Prescott. His most notable season came in 2022 where he started five games for the Cowboys, finishing with a 4-1 record and keeping the Cowboys alive for an eventual playoff berth.
Rush has proven to be one of the league’s most reliable backups over the course of his career, and despite his lack of play-making ability, has posted a 9-5 record in Dallas.
With Rush leaving the Cowboys are in need of a backup quarterback, with Trey Lance a free agent. Will Grier is the only quarterback under contract as of today, but Stephen Jones spoke at the combine about the team’s hopes of adding a quarterback in the 2025 draft class.
Good luck lad
