Cooper Rush
QB - Baltimore Ravens
Availability
Cooper Rush completed 11-of-19 passes for 72 yards and one interception in the Ravens 17-3 loss to the Rams.
Fantasy Impact
Rush also lost one fumble in the game and was replaced by Tyler Huntley after the team was trailing by two touchdowns. The Ravens are on a bye in Week 7 and the team expects Lamar Jackson (hamstring) to be ready to return in Week 8.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh confirmed that Cooper Rush would start again if Lamar Jackson is ruled out.
Fantasy Impact
It seems likely that Jackson will remain sidelined. Rush will look to bounce back against the Rams after struggling last week against the Texans.
After Baltimore Ravens quarterback Cooper Rush struggled in Week 5 against Houston, head coach John Harbaugh said the team is considering everything regarding who will start under center in Week 6.
Fantasy Impact
With Lamar Jackson sidelined due to a hamstring injury, Rush threw for 179 yards and three interceptions with no touchdowns in Week 5. Tyler Huntley is on the Ravens' roster, too, and has started nine games in Baltimore. It's possible he could be elevated to start against the Los Angeles Rams. The Ravens have a bye week in Week 7, so the hope is that Jackson can return for Week 8.
Cooper Rush completed 14-of-20 passes for 179 yards and three interceptions in a 44-10 loss to the Texans.
Fantasy Impact
Rush and the entire Ravens' offense struggled to get anything going in Rush's first start of the season. With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) potentially missing multiple weeks, Rush could be asked to start against the Rams in Week 6. Fantasy managers should continue to temper their expectations as long as Jackson is out of the lineup.
The Ravens have signed QB Cooper Rush to a two-year deal worth up to $12.2 million.
Fantasy Impact
Rush earned himself a nice payday after going 4-4 during his time as the Cowboys' starting quarterback in 2024. The 31-year-old will provide the Ravens with a dependable backup for the next two seasons.
