Just stirring the pot? Or is there a possibility that it could come true?

The Seattle Seahawks could have a slim chance of finding their next QB1 via trade after Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones left the door open for a possible quarterback competition in Big D. Cooper Rush is a perfect 2-0 in his starts dating back to last season, and Jones turned heads by admitting that he would be open to Rush playing well enough to force head coach Mike McCarthy into making a difficult decision when Dak Prescott returns. Jones referenced Prescott’s ability to keep the starting job when Tony Romo returned healthy as a potential pathway for Rush to do something similar.

Jones told reporters on September 22. “You do that if he gets 10 wins. Same thing that happened with Prescott [versus Romo], I think like that.”

Jones was asked in a follow-up question if he would welcome a quarterback competition.

“Of course I would, of course,” Jones added. “That means we won. If he comes in here and plays as well as Prescott played [his rookie season], [if] Rush played that well over these next games ahead, I’d walk to New York to get that.”

The Seahawks would likely be one of the first teams in line if Prescott somehow becomes available via trade.

Interesting . But he’s being paid elite money . The physical skills are there although he’s been hurt a lot it seems . His issues seem to be more decision making , situational football . I’ve heard he’s a good locker room guy and certainly doesn’t seem like an attention seeker . But really what has he done on some good Cowboys teams in a down division much of the time ? I’m not sure I’d want to expend a bunch of draft capital and eat the salary if I’m Seattle . But Pete and john and Jodi will make that call .

The draft is a crap shoot at QB so getting a known commodity has its advantages and he would certainly be an upgrade.
Dallas would get a lot of draft capital for him but would it set us back in the building phase?
Our current problems run far deeper than just at QB and another deep draft like last year is needed to truly get on track.

At this point, I'd say no to Dak. If he were a free agent and we didn't have to give up a bunch of draft capital or if we already had a good foundation in place, then I'd be more willing to consider him. But we're a young, rebuilding team with a lot of holes to fill, and we're going to need those draft picks to improve the overall quality of this team.

NO, too much Money for what you get.

Agree. Too much money, and he is not a sure thing.

Prescot is an injury magnet. It feels like he's spent as much or more time in rehab as he has on the field.
