Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush is dealing with an injury heading into the team’s Week 11 against the Houston Texans. Per Todd Archer of ESPN, Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Rush dealt with a neck strain after his first fumble against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. But Rush said the injury won’t prevent him from playing on Sunday night.

“Little neck thing but we were good to go. We’re feeling great now, Rush said. When asked how long it took to recover, Rush said, “One minute. I mean we were good.”

Rush was on the Cowboys’ first injury report of Week 11 and was a full participant in practice. It’s good news for Dallas considering starting QB Dak Prescott will likely miss the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury.

Rush took over for Prescott in the Week 9 game against the Falcons. In the loss, Rush completed 13 of 25 passes for 115 yards and one touchdown. Last week, Rush made his first start of the season and completed 13 of 23 passes for 45 yards in a 34-6 loss to the Eagles.

Mike McCarthy says Cooper Rush is an ‘excellent pro’

Before the Eagles game, McCarthy announced that Rush would be the starting QB and Trey Lance would be the backup. “Cooper has played really good football for us,” he said, per the Cowboys’ official website. “I think he’s 5-1 in his opportunities. Like I said, we have great confidence in him.”

McCarthy went on to explain how valuable Rush is to the team. “[That record] goes well beyond 5-1,” he said.  “Cooper Rush is as respected as a backup quarterback as anyone since, I’d say Rich Gannon. He carries that type of credibility. He’s a great teammate. He’s someone you can see the young guys lean on — wicked smart, instinctive and does a great job when he runs the scout team. He just does everything the right way. An excellent pro. There will be plenty of confidence in him.”

Rush, 30, originally signed with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in 2017. He was on the team for three seasons before he was waived in May 2020. Rush was picked up by the New York Giants but was released from the team in late September. The former Central Michigan QB re-signed with the Cowboys on Halloween 2020 and has been with the team since.
