Dak Prescott is attempting to make a quick return from an injured thumb. Meanwhile, Cooper Rush is in place as the starting quarterback for the time being. Rush actually played decently well in Week 2. Even so, the starting role should belong to Prescott. Well, enter Jerry Jones who makes quite the bold statement.
