Cowboys head coach\u00a0Mike McCarthy\u00a0revealed Wednesday that it would be backup quarterback\u00a0Cooper Rush taking Prescott&#8217;s place\u00a0in the interim rather than former NDSU quarterback\u00a0Trey Lance, who was formerly a highly-touted first-round draft pick. He has far from met the expectations, though, now on the second team in his career since being selected third overall by the San Francisco 49ers in the 2021 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose align-center\">\n<div class=\"min-w-[300px] overflow-x-hidden text-center font-secondary uppercase my-2.5 min-h-[280px] md:min-h-[250px]\">\n<div id=\"content_1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>McCarthy likes what he has seen out of Rush as a true team player from an intangibles perspective.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCooper&#8217;s been great in getting Dak ready to play, and now Dak, they&#8217;ll be some role reversal there,\u201d McCarthy said in a report from ESPN. \u201c[Rush&#8217;s] temperament is excellent. I would say he&#8217;s as even-keeled as an individual, especially a quarterback, that I&#8217;ve had the opportunity to work with. Cerebral. Smart. He gives you the flexibility to continue to play. I think that&#8217;s what you want in all your quarterbacks. You don&#8217;t want to get to a spot where you have to change a bunch of things offensively because who&#8217;s behind center.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How long precisely Rush will start in Prescott&#8217;s place remains to be seen. It is clear the former Mississippi State signal-caller is pushing to get back to the field as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose flex w-full flex-col gap-4 divide-y divide-solid divide-[#58585820] bg-[#FAFAFA] px-4 pt-5\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-between\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col\">\n<article class=\"article-body prose max-w-none pb-7 pt-5 prose-figure:max-w-full prose-ol:pl-10 prose-img:max-w-full prose-video:max-w-full md:prose-ol:pl-6 [&amp;_iframe]:m-auto [&amp;_iframe]:block [&amp;_iframe]:max-w-full\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\">\u201cAs the Cowboys\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\">weigh in on Dak Prescott\u2019s IR status, sources tell me the initial diagnosis is a partial avulsion of his hamstring tendon, which is partially torn off the bone,\u201d NFL insider Jane Slater posted to \u201cX,\u201d formerly known as Twitter. \u201cI\u2019m told it typically takes more than a 4-week recovery.
