The Dallas Cowboys, 3-7 and losers of five in a row, are sticking with the status quo at quarterback with Dak Prescott sidelined after undergoing surgery on his hamstring. Head coach Mike McCarthy named eight-year veteran backup Cooper Rush the Cowboys' starting quarterback in Week 12 when they visit former defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and his 7-4 Washington Commanders.

Since the owner said he has no desire to see Trey Lance start a game this season, it was a given that Cooper Rush would retain his starting job.
