Cowboys QB Dak Prescott Sidelined for Multiple Weeks and Has Choice Words About the Team
Hamstring injuries f#*king suck and so do the Dallas Cowboys, per Dak Prescott. Dak was caught saying as much to a teammate, during a broadcast cut to him with the clock winding down in the fourth quarter in this Sunday’s matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Dak had exited the game in the third quarter with a hamstring injury on a play following a scramble in which he came up with a limp.
The Cowboys are now sitting at 3-5 and it appears Cooper Rush will be the starting quarterback for at least the next four games. Trey Lance will be sitting behind Rush as the backup. If we don’t get an opportunity to see Trey Lance in the next four weeks, I give all you dynasty truthers permission to free up the roster spot.
In the wake of the infamous Richardson tap out, and Baker’s Zyn-cident, Dak’s unfortunate timing on expressing how he feels about the team this year stands out to me as the worst offense. While I can appreciate honest self reflection, Dak is, both in position and in compensation, a leader in that locker room. Even when Dak returns following this injury, this looks to be a lost season for the cowboys.

Dak Prescott has already removed the walking boot he was spotted in over the fourth of July weekend.
Dak Prescott was spotted in a walking boot while on vacation over the fourth of July weekend. However, fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief because the injury wasn’t serious, and Prescott has already removed the walking boot. This is good news with the Cowboys set to begin training camp on July 25th.
Prescott played at an MVP caliber in 2024 and is in a contract-year headed toward free agency in 2025. While TV personalities question whether Prescott can win in the playoffs, that shouldn’t matter to fantasy football managers. He has been a top 10 quarterback each of the last three seasons he’s been healthy.
Brandin Cooks has an obvious connection with Dak Prescott in Cowboys’ Mini-Camp
A report from The Athletic indicated that Brandin Cooks and Dak Prescott have developed a lot of chemistry over the last year. While Cooks had a disappointing first season with the Cowboys, he scored 8 touchdowns in his final 12 games. Prescott started the year slow as well, and each of them plan on building on their strong finish to the 2023 season.
The Cowboys should be one of the highest volume passing offenses in the NFL given their limitations at the running back position. This is a great situation for Cooks who has no competition as Dallas’ clear WR2 going into the 2024 season. While Cooks is passed his prime going into year eleven, he could still provide WR3 value most weeks. This makes Cooks a value in current fantasy drafts.
