Behind the Steel Curtain on Cooper Rush

Rush elevated to first-team reps; potential Week 1 starter if Tagovailoa unavailable.

Cooper Rush took first-team reps Thursday after Tagovailoa's back discomfort, positioning him as a potential Week 1 starter against the Steelers. At 32 years old, Rush is one of the NFL's longest-tenured backups with 39 games in eight seasons (20 TDs, 14 INTs). Should he start, the source notes it gives a huge advantage to the Steelers defensively.
