The Eagles have two Cowboys quarterbacks to prepare for

The Eagles travel to Dallas for their Week 10 NFC East matchup against the Cowboys, and thanks to Jerry Jones, the Birds may not be completely surprised if Trey Lance ends up on the field.

With Dak Prescott sidelined for several weeks with a hamstring injury that reportedly caused some muscles to separate from the bone, Cooper Rush was named QB1, with Lance serving as the backup.

Jerry Jones talked about Lance being QB2 and mentioned that they had some packages prepared that would get Lance on the field – not just to get some playing time, but in a meaningful way for the offense. The team owner hasn't openly said he would include these games against the Eagles, but it probably still isn't ideal for the Dallas coaching staff if the information becomes public.

Cooper Rush is 5-1 as a starter for the Cowboys, so he's not a walk-over backup Philly will face on Sunday, and hopefully the Eagles' defense has prepared for Lance just in case.
