Cooper Rush will back up Dak Prescott, while Trey Lance will remain the third quarterback to start the season in Dallas, coach Mike McCarthy said Monday.

The Cowboys open the season on the road Sunday against the Cleveland Browns.

Rush, 30, is entering his seventh campaign with Dallas (2017-19, 2021-23). He is 5-1 as a starter, completing 60.6 percent of his passes in 26 total games for 1,619 yards with eight touchdowns and five interceptions.

Lance, 24, was the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers and was traded to the Cowboys before the 2023 season for a 2024 fourth-round draft pick. He did not take any snaps for Dallas last season.

Lance was 2-2 with the 49ers from 2021-22, completing 54.9 percent of his throws in eight total games for 797 yards with five TDs and three picks. He also rushed for 235 yards and one score.

Lance had a miserable showing in the Cowboys’ final preseason game, tossing five interceptions in a 26-19 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Aug. 24.
