Dak Prescott Status

rotoWire
The Cowboys have restructured Prescott's contract, a move that saves the franchise about $22 million against its 2023 salary cap, Nick Eatman of the team's official site reports.

What it means:

The report adds that guard Zack Martin also had his deal restructured, with the contract conversions designed to get the Cowboys under the NFL salary cap ahead of free agency. Prescott is coming off a 2022 season in which he logged 2,860 passing yards to go along with 23 touchdowns a career-high 15 interceptions in 12 games.
rotoWire
Prescott completed 23 of 37 pass attempts for 206 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 19-12 divisional-round loss to San Francisco.

What it means:

Prescott reverted to his turnover-prone self after dominating the Buccaneers in the wild-card round last week, throwing two untimely first-half interceptions that hamstrung his team in a tight contest. The 29-year-old added 22 rushing yards on four attempts, but he was unable to extend his playoff streak of scoring both passing and rushing touchdowns in the loss. Prescott finished the regular season with 2,860 passing yards and 23 touchdowns in the 12 games he was healthy enough to start, but the career-high 15 interceptions were alarming for a veteran quarterback with his track record. The Cowboys' franchise quarterback is under contract through the 2025 season, so this core will look to regroup and return as contenders in 2023.
rotoWire
Prescott completed 25 of 33 pass attempts for 305 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in Monday night's 31-14 wild-card win over the Buccaneers. He also rushed seven times for 24 yards and another score.

What it means:

Coming off an interception-laden latter half of the season and particularly abysmal regular-season finale, Prescott came out of the gates Monday night like a player singularly focused on atoning for that atypical stretch. Prescott finished off the Cowboys' third drive of the game with a 22-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Schultz before putting Dallas up by two scores with a one-yard run to cap off a 15-play, 80-yard drive just past the midway point of the second quarter. Another touchdown toss late in the second quarter to Schultz, this one of 11 yards, followed before he added two- and 18-yard strikes to Michael Gallup and CeeDee Lamb in the third and fourth quarters, respectively. The five-touchdown effort certainly absolved Prescott of his recent struggles for the time being, but an unenviable test awaits Sunday evening in a road divisional-round matchup versus the 49ers at Levi's Stadium.
rotoWire
Prescott completed 14 of 37 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 26-6 loss to the Commanders. He added 16 rushing yards on six carries.

What it means:

The Cowboys came into the game with a small chance to claim the NFC East title and maybe even secure the top seed in the conference with a win, but instead the entire offense -- Prescott included -- delivered maybe its worst performance of the season. The quarterback wraps up the regular season with 2,860 passing yards and a 23:15 TD:INT over 12 games, having thrown an interception in seven straight games, and Dallas' 12-win campaign seems to be in serious danger of ending in a playoff one-and-done in the wild-card round against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers.

Prescott (knee) wasn't listed on the Cowboys' first Week 18 injury report Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

What it means:

In the wake of last Thursday's win in Tennessee, team president Jerry Jones said Friday that Prescott may have suffered a hyperextended knee during that contest. The issue didn't stop Prescott from playing all 80 offensive snaps, and coach Mike McCarthy told Todd Archer of ESPN.com, "I don't have concern about Dak moving forward." Prescott's ability to not only log a full practice but avoid the injury report entirely Wednesday demonstrates that his health isn't in question ahead of Sunday's contest at Washington.
rotoWire
Prescott hyperextended his knee during Thursday's 27-13 win over the Titans, but he was able to keep playing and team president Jerry Jones said he has "zero concern moving forward," Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

What it means:

Prescott didn't have his best game against a Titans team missing a slew of key players, throwing for 282 yards and two touchdowns but also committing three turnovers. It sounds like he'll be fine for Week 18 against the Commanders, though rest for the playoffs could enter the discussion depending how other games in Week 17 play out.
