FRISCO -- The Cowboys kept Cooper Rush over Kellen Moore when the team cut its roster to 53 players.
That doesn't mean Rush will find himself ahead of Moore by week's end.
Confused? Don't be. What the Cowboys did over the weekend wasn't necessarily a declaration of what form the depth chart will take at quarterback. It was about controlling the fate of two players rather than exposing one to the waiver wire where he could be picked off.
Rush earned a spot on the roster with his preseason performance. But he was so good, the Cowboys were concerned another team would claim the rookie if they released him then tried to bring him back.
