As it stands today, the Cowboys have three backup quarterback options on their roster. Cooper Rush, Garrett Gilbert, and Ben DiNucci.
We saw two of these guys in action last year in the miserable stretch of backup quarterback starts the team had after Dak Prescott went down with his injury. Ben DiNucci’s start against the Eagles was as ugly as it gets. Completing just 53.5% of his passes, taking seven sacks, and posting a quarterback rating of 13.5, DiNucci quickly received his welcome to the NFL moment.
Garrett Gilbert, on the other hand, wasn’t all that bad.
