Cooper Rush Fantasy

The New York Giants claimed quarterback Cooper Rush off waivers from the Dallas Cowboys. Rush was placed on waivers after the Cowboys signed former Bengals legend Andy Dalton to backup starter Dak Prescott. Rush is reunited with Jason Garrett, who is now working as offensive coordinator for the Giants. Rush will compete with Colt McCoy and Alex Tanney for the clipboard job behind starter Daniel Jones. Rush hasn't attempted a regular season pass since 2017.

The Dallas Cowboys waived quarterback Cooper Rush on Monday after they officially signed Andy Dalton to a one-year, $3 million deal. Rush attempted just three passes (all coming in 2017) in his three seasons with the Cowboys as Dak Prescott's backup. Dalton becomes one of the league's best backups behind Prescott now, and the Cowboys also have Clayton Thorson and rookie Ben DiNucci on the roster. Prescott has yet to officially sign his franchise tender, but that will eventually happen if the two sides can't iron out a long-term contract extension before July 15.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush played most of Saturday's first preseason game and looked solid enough in the process. He completed 16-of-26 passes for 142 scoreless yards. Rush is set to be the direct backup to starter Dak Prescott but shouldn't have to do much more than hold a clipboard unless something goes wrong.
