DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - The Dallas Cowboys re-signed backup quarterback Cooper Rush to a two-year deal on Friday morning, according to multiple reports.
The deal is worth up to $6 million, with $2.75 million guaranteed next season.
For all intents and purposes, Rush saved the Cowboys season in 2022, taking over for an injured Dak Prescott - who was injured in a Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers - and going 4-1 as the starter.
Two of Rush's wins came in key divisional games against the Washington Commanders and the New York Giants, while the others were against the Cincinnati Bengals, and the Los Angeles Rams.
