Dak Prescott

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Dak Prescott’s hamstring injury is worse than initially feared and that he’s likely to miss multiple weeks.

It’s a brutal blow for Prescott and the 3-5 Cowboys. Rapoport reports Prescott will seek a second opinion on his injury but reiterated that he is “out multiple weeks, and it could be more.” With Prescott now sidelined for the foreseeable future, the Cowboys will turn to Cooper Rush, who completed 13-of-25 passes for 115 yards and one touchdown in Sunday’s loss to the Falcons. Rush has a career passing line of 1,786-9-6 on 275 passes and is 5-1 as a starter. He should give the Cowboys a fighting chance in Week 10’s game against the Eagles, but this injury do Dak looks like the proverbial nail in the coffin of the Cowboys’ 2024 campaign.
