Reporters from the Dallas Cowboys official website aren’t sold on Trey Lance beating out Cooper Rush.
. The third overall pick in 2021 never developed into a starter for the San Francisco 49ers and didn’t see the field at all for the Dallas Cowboys in 2023.
That’s going to change this year, at least in the preseason. Dallas wants to get Lance as much exposure as possible and seeing him excel to the backup quarterback role would be the ideal result. That won’t be easy with Cooper Rush ahead of him, and those who cover the team for the official website aren’t sold on that outcome.
He was named the starter in 2022 but played just two games before being sent to the IR due to an ankle injury. The Cowboys took a chance on his potential and will surely get hit with some harsh criticism if he never ascends beyond an inactive QB3. Considering how well Rush has performed when called upon, that’s a very real possibility.
