Dak Prescott jogged off the field at U.S. Bank Stadium after a 38-minute pregame workout Sunday. The extensive warmup didn’t change the Cowboys’ reality: Dallas will face the Vikings on «Sunday Night Football» without their starting quarterback. Prescott is inactive, the team confirmed 90 minutes before kickoff. Fifth-year pro Cooper Rush, who has attempted three passes in his entire career, will instead make his first NFL start. The Cowboys first signed Rush in 2017 as an undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan. He spent three years as Prescott’s backup, rejoining the team last year after Prescott’s injury. He knows the system and his teammates closely, but has scant regular-season experience. Rush has attempted just three passes in his NFL career, completing one in a 2017 contest.
