Dak Prescott Struggles to Get Anything Going on Sunday
Dak Prescott struggled to move the ball on Sunday, completing 19 of 29 passes for 170 yards. He did not throw an interception, but he didn't throw a touchdown either. He added five carries for 19 yards, but lost a fumble as well. It was a bad day overall for the Cowboys offense, but the quarterback will always take most of the blame. The offensive line was not nearly as strong as it has been in previous years, and Prescott struggled because of it. He will hope for more time to throw next weekend against the Giants.

Dak Prescott Doing Well In Recovery From Hamstring Injury
Dak Prescott (hamstring) said he is progressing in his recovery from a season-ending torn right hamstring last year that required surgery. "If I had to play a game today, I definitely could do that," Prescott said. "It's about moving forward healthy to make sure I can play 17 times, 20 [games] -- whatever we get to when the time's right." Prescott ended up playing in only eight games in 2024 after signing a four-year, $240 million contract extension last September that made him the highest-paid QB in NFL history in terms of annual average value. Before the injury, the 31-year-old had only 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions, making him a big disappointment in fantasy leagues as a QB1. However, the three-time Pro Bowler will be looking to bounce back in 2025 and is planning to take part in organized team activities when they start next month.

Dak Prescott "Doing Great" In Rehab From Hamstring Surgery
Dak Prescott (hamstring) is "doing great" after hamstring surgery. ESPN's Todd Archer reported the news. "He's very thrilled with where he is, and I know the trainers are too," said Jones. "I feel like he's doing a hell of a job." While this is good news, Jones also reports that the 31-year-old will have "some limitations" in the offseason training program. Prescott will be looking to bounce back in 2025. Aside from the nine games he missed with injury, the Louisiana native wasn't at the top of his game when he was healthy, producing an 11:8 TD:INT ratio and 247.25 yards per game across eight outings. It appears he's on the right track regarding his injury, but Prescott will have other factors working against his rebound, such as a new head coach in Brian Schottenheimer.

Cowboys Restructure Dak Prescott's Deal
Dak Prescott's contract on Wednesday that will open up $36.6 million in salary cap space in 2025, and it comes just one day after the team restructured star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb's contract. After the restructures for both Prescott and Lamb, the Cowboys have freed up $56.6 million in cap space in advance of a likely big-time contract extension for star pass-rusher Micah Parsons this offseason. It remains to be seen how aggressive the Cowboys, who did next to nothing in free agency a year ago, will get in free agency in 2025. The 31-year-old Prescott had a career year in 2023 before playing in just eight games last year due to a season-ending torn hamstring that required surgery in November. Prescott is on track in his recovery and should be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season, where he'll be more of a low-end QB1 asset in fantasy.

Dak Prescott Looking To Amp Up His Rehab
Dak Prescott (hamstring) said on Wednesday that his "health is good" and that he's "looking to amp it up here recently" in his rehab from a season-ending torn right hamstring that he suffered on Nov. 3. Prescott still has plenty of rehab left to do, but signs are encouraging that he could be ready to take part in Dallas' offseason workouts if everything continues to trend in a positive direction. It was a disappointing season all around for the Cowboys in 2024, but things went from bad to worse after Prescott's injury. The 31-year-old three-time Pro Bowler was underwhelming in his eight starts before getting hurt after a career year in 2023 in which he threw for 4,516 yards and a league-high 36 touchdowns. Prescott threw for 1,978 yards, 11 TDs and eight picks in 2024 and will see his fantasy stock drop heading into 2025 while coming off a major injury with new head coach Brian Schottenheimer now calling offensive plays.
