Earlier this week, head coach Mike McCarthy decided to name Cooper Rush as the starting quarterback for the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys<\/a>\u00a0in Week 11. Rush and Trey Lance had opportunities to play in Dallas\u2019 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Dallas Cowboys backup QBs were terrible on Sunday<\/h2>\n

Rush went 13-of-23 passing for 45 yards in the loss at AT&T Stadium. He also lost two fumbles against the Eagles. Lance saw most of his action in the fourth quarter when the Eagles were up 28-6. The former first-round pick by the San Francisco 49ers went 4-of-6 for 21 yards and one interception.<\/p>\n

\n

Neither quarterback looked great in the first game after Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending hamstring injury against the Atlanta Falcons. McCarthy decided to stick with the veteran for the Cowboys\u2019 matchup against the Houston Texans on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Cooper Rush has a neck injury<\/h2>\n

Per the Cowboys injury report in Week 11, Rush\u2019s name was added for having a neck issue. He was a full participant at practice.<\/p>\n

The injury is concerning for Rush and the Cowboys. Given the type of injury, Rush\u2019s status could be fluid during the week. Aggravating a neck injury is the last thing Rush or the Cowboys want this season.<\/p>\n

Rush is entering Week 11 having thrown for 212 yards, one touchdown and one interception in 2024. Per ESPN, the 30-year-old quarterback has a\u00a024.8 QBR<\/a>.<\/p>\n
