QB Cooper Rush Trying Out For Vikings
NFL Rumors - ProFootballRumors.com • • sports
Key Points:
- Quarterback Cooper Rush, released by the Ravens in March, has been invited by the Minnesota Vikings to try out at their rookie minicamp, as the team did not draft or sign any new quarterbacks for the camp.
- Despite the tryout opportunity, Rush faces stiff competition in a crowded Vikings quarterback room, which includes J.J. McCarthy, Kyler Murray, Carson Wentz, and UDFA Max Brosmer.
- Rush's recent performance has been underwhelming; after stepping in for an injured Dak Prescott with the Cowboys from 2017-24, he struggled significantly during his 2025 stint with the Ravens, posting poor stats and losing both starts he made.
- The Ravens relegated Rush to third-string duties mid-season, and he finished 2025 with a low completion rate, no touchdowns, four interceptions, and poor quarterback ratings, casting doubt on his prospects for a new contract.
