Quick answer

Hold

Rush had 2 solo tackles in 2023, finishing DB258. Played a short 2023 (1 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
