The Cowboys released all of their backup quarterbacks on Tuesday and speculation around the organization is either Will Grier or Cooper Rush will be elevated to the roster on a week-by-week basis.

The former Mountaineer signal caller has not seen the field since his rookie season in 2019, making his only two appearances for an injured Newton and a struggling Kyle Allen.

He's had solid preseason numbers the last two years. He led the Cowboys passing attack in the final two season preseason games, tossing 186 yards on 18-32 passing and two touchdowns. Last preseason with the Carolina Panthers, he went 22-31 (71.0%) for 222 yards in three appearances.
