The Dallas Cowboys should play with out their beginning QB for not less than just a few video games. Dak Prescott will miss “a number of video games” after injuring his hamstring in Sunday's 27-21 loss in opposition to the Atlanta Falcons, in line with NFL Community's Tom Pelissero.
Prescott went down with the harm late within the third quarter. He initially felt a tightness in his hamstring, however “didn't suppose a lot of it.”
“Then on the subsequent play, I felt a pull. It's one thing I've by no means felt. It was exhausting to go for it at that time,” Prescott stated after the sport. He didn’t return for the fourth quarter and was changed by backup QB Cooper Rush, who will begin in Prescott's place.
Pelissero reported that the Cowboys (Three-5) have but to determine whether or not to put Prescott on injured reserve, however the harm is “extra critical than anticipated.”
The Cowboys have had a disastrous season thus far, and accidents to key gamers like Micah Parsons and DaRon Bland have performed a task in that. And on high of that, shedding Prescott, even for just a few weeks, makes it much less seemingly that he’ll succeed. Proprietor and common supervisor Jerry Jones recommended the group could possibly be lively earlier than Tuesday's commerce deadline, however that could be the soccer equal of placing a Band-Assist over a serious wound.
