Twitter: Jerry on Cooper Rush's $250k incentive

In order to get the bonus, Cooper Rush would have had to play just about every snap of the offense (except a handful).
The bonus was for playing 55 percent of the snaps on offense for the entire season. He already picked up a bonus for hitting the 45 percent threshold.

Can't blame Dallas for wanting to watch Trey Lance play an entire game. We've seen enough of Cooper's pop-gun arm to know what he can and can't do.
 
Cooper did better than could have been reasonably expected so he deserved the bonus.
The fact Jethro and company were like this on that does not make FA's think very well of them.
But I guess since they only dumpster dive its not a problem
 
So I remember they did this with Sean Lee and he lost out on 2 million.....

I think there's a work around to get Rush that money. Jones is a lot of things and I can't stand the guy but to cost him 250k....that doesn't seem like his MO.
I'm pretty sure the Jones will pay him that 250K, The media is making a a big deal because of the circus we are right now.

The optics are awful, and they had 2 months to not only see Lance play, but see if he has anything
 
if the team wants to keep Cooper Rush next year, they need to pay him the bonus.

I totally agree that we needed to see Lance but that can't be a net loss for a guy on a very cheap contract.
The guy earned 2,875,000 this year alone. Thats a lot of money.

He overall got 5 mils for his 2 year contract with us. To me thats not cheap and those are no peanuts. Its not like he or his family has to starve because he didnt get the 250k bonus.
 
Great football mind Jerry has; lose 60 million win 1/4 mil. Legacy of of the Cowboys past 25+ years.

Umm yeah, $250K is a lot of money for a guy that still made $5MM over two years.

Anyone trying to rationalize this for Jerry are fools IMO.

If he does pay it's only because he got called out in the media and this was publicized. If it never came out that Rush lost out on $250K, I am pretty sure Mr. PR Jerry Jones wouldn't pay.

But now that people know about it and it makes Jerry look like the cheap ******* we know he is, Jerry might actually pay it.
