Meanwhile,\u00a0Bryce Young\u00a0lasted all of two games in his second NFL season before losing the\u00a0Carolina Panthers\u00a0starting quarterback gig.<\/p>\n<p>Could the Panthers now be in the market for a new quarterback after benching Young? Former Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton is now the Panthers starting signal-caller, but it is unclear if this is a permanent solution. Dallas has\u00a0Cooper Rush\u00a0and\u00a0Trey Lance\u00a0sitting behind Dak Prescott.<\/p>\n<p>Rush is likely the preferable option if the Panthers are looking for a quarterback who can play right away. Lance is more of a project, and Carolina appears to already have that in Young.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_1_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-1 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_1\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>For the purposes of this exercise, let\u2019s focus on a trade pitch that would send Rush to the Panthers.

We do know that Rush had multiple teams interested in his services during NFL free agency in 2023, including the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders\u00a0and\u00a0Cincinnati Bengals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_2_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-2 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_2\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cAfter going 4-1 last season as the Dallas Cowboys\u2019 starting quarterback while Dak Prescott recovered from thumb surgery, Rush was a hot commodity in free agency,\u201d\u00a0ESPN\u2019s Todd Archer\u00a0wrote in an April 4, 2023, story titled, \u201cBad weather, a delayed flight and kismet? How Cooper Rush\u2019s deal with Cowboys got done.\u201d \u201cHe was flying to Las Vegas that day to meet with the Raiders, and the Cincinnati Bengals also expressed interest and hoped to set up a visit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026 Though the flight was never canceled, Rush never got on the plane. He took a night to sleep on the Cowboys\u2019 offer and woke up on St. Patrick\u2019s Day with a two-year deal worth a max of $6 million that included a $1.25 million signing bonus.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_3_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-3 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_3\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Would Trading for Cowboys QB Cooper Rush be an Upgrade for the Panthers Over Andy Dalton?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys will need to decide if the team prefers having depth behind Prescott over potentially landing a future draft pick. Dallas could also look to pull off the rare player for player swap. Running back Miles Sanders has mostly been stuck on the sideline and could make some sense for the Cowboys given the team\u2019s rushing woes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_4_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-4 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_4\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Would Rush be an upgrade at quarterback over Dalton for the Panthers? Rush\u2019s best season came in 2022 when the quarterback filled in for an injured Prescott. The veteran threw for 1,051 yards, 5 touchdowns and 3 interceptions while completing 58 % of his passes in nine appearances, including five starts.<\/p>\n<p>Both Rush and Lance will hit free agency this offseason. It would seem unlikely that Dallas would make a strong push to keep both quarterbacks now that Prescott has signed a long-term deal. For now, Lance is an expensive third-string quarterback with a\u00a0$5.3 million cap hit\u00a0in 2024.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_5_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-content adthrive-content-5 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,25816858\/AdThrive_Content_5\/5ad7479721520f50ab7da88e_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-content entry-content\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"l-article__author-bio\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heavy on CowboysThe Dallas Cowboys could explore a potential trade with the Carolina Panthers for Cooper Rush.
