Dak Prescott Won't Start In Week 6
2 years agoDallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) will not start in Week 6 on Sunday night against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles because he's not fully healthy yet. Cooper Rush's success in Prescott's absence has nothing to do with the fact that Prescott won't play this weekend. Prescott is scheduled to do some light throwing at practice on Wednesday for the first time since fracturing his right thumb in the season opener, but he won't play until at least Week 7 against the Detroit Lions. Rush has mostly been a game manager for Dallas in Prescott's absence, but he's gone a perfect 4-0. He'll continue to serve as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues against the Eagles on Sunday Night Football.
