Senior quarterback Cooper Rush speaks to the media following the annual CMU Pro Day, Mar. 20 in the Indoor Athletic Center.

In Saturday night's preseason game against the Oakland Raiders, former CMU quarterback Cooper Rush threw 12-for-13, tallying 115 yards and two touchdowns for the Dallas Cowboys after coming on for Dak Prescott.

Rush is fighting for his chance to make the 53-man roster as an undrafted rookie.

His most recent performance has caught the eye of Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones.

"I'm very impressed," Jones told media after the game according to the team's website.
