It’s important to have a quality backup quarterback. The Dallas Cowboys have learned this lesson the hard way a time or two. There have been many times over the last two decades where the team has been put in a bad spot due to not having a viable backup quarterback on the roster. And with Dak Prescott missing time in four of the last five seasons, it’s not wise to head into the new season without a backup plan.
The Cowboys have relied on Cooper Rush for the last few years, and he’s been decent. The team has tried to get better but hasn’t had much success in doing so.
