Contract resolution looming
Speaking on Prescott's upcoming free agency, executive vice president Stephen Jones told KTCK Sportsradio 1310 The Ticket that the Cowboys "got to land the plane" and finish a long-term deal with the quarterback.
Analysis: Along with Ezekiel Elliott's holdout, Prescott's contract situation dominated the headlines for the Cowboys last offseason and into the preseason. While the running back received a much-anticipated extension before the campaign, Prescott did not, playing out the string on his rookie deal. He set career highs along the way, namely 4,902 yards through the air and 30 touchdowns, and did so while gutting out an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder over the final three games. Prescott has only…read more

Big finish to campaign
Prescott completed 23 of 33 passes for 303 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 47-16 win over Washington.
Analysis: Early in the game it appeared as though Prescott's sore shoulder was limiting his ability to attack downfield, but once he got loose he took the Washington secondary to the woodshed, finding Michael Gallup for three second-half TDs. Despite the QB's efforts, Dallas missed the playoffs, but he earned himself significantly more money in free agency -- assuming he doesn't get saddled with the franchise tag -- by finishing the season having completed 65.1 percent of his passes for 4,902 yards, a…read more

Available for Week 17
Prescott (shoulder) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, but he won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Redskins, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Analysis: Per Todd Archer of ESPN.com, Prescott didn't throw Friday, but he apparently fit in enough work to upgrade to limited participation after going down as a "DNP" on the Cowboys' first two practice reports of Week 17. Based on the fact that Prescott isn't even listed as questionable for the team's regular-season finale, the Cowboys are apparently content to let the quarterback play through the sprained AC joint in his throwing shoulder with a potential playoff berth on the line. The Cowboys need a…read more

Not spotted throwing
Prescott (shoulder) didn't throw any passes during the media-access portion of Friday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Prescott was able to complete some individual drills, so he'll presumably be listed as a limited participant. It's similar to the plan he followed last week prior to suiting up in a 17-9 loss to the Eagles. Prescott presumably intends to play through his AC joint sprain for another week, as the Cowboys can still reach the playoffs if they beat Washington and the Eagles lose to the Giants.

Limited at best Friday
Coach Jason Garrett said Prescott (shoulder) "won't practice much if he practices at all" Friday, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Garrett said the same thing Thursday and Prescott was ultimately held out of practice, so it remains to be seen exactly how much he will do at the Cowboys' final session of the week. Even if Prescott misses Friday's practice entirely, he should still have a chance to play in Sunday's must-win matchup with Washington.

Logs 'DNP' in Thursday's session
Prescott (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Thursday's practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Coach Jason Garrett suggested prior to the session that Prescott would be a limited participant, but whatever activity the quarterback was able to complete apparently wasn't enough for him to avoid a "DNP" listing on the injury report for a second straight day. Per Todd Archer of ESPN.com, Prescott wasn't seen throwing during the open portion of Thursday's practice and was instead taking part in individual drills, leaving Cooper Rush to direct the first-team offense. According to Jane Slater…read more

Set for another light workout
Coach Jason Garrett said that Prescott (shoulder) is progressing but will be limited in practice Thursday, if the quarterback "does anything at all," Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Prescott went down as a non-participant on Wednesday's report, but since the Cowboys' Christmas Day practice was just a walk-through session, his listing on Thursday's report will provide a better representation of his status heading into Sunday's game against the Redskins. Based on Garrett's comments, Prescott looks set to follow the same practice regimen he followed last week, so there's still a decent chance he enters the regular-season finale without an injury designation. Cooper Rush will…read more

Logs DNP in practice
Prescott (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Prescott battled an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder heading into last Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Eagles, finishing the day with just 25 completions for 265 yards on 44 attempts. While Prescott didn't experience any reported setbacks coming out of the contest, the Cowboys are likely to manage his reps carefully during their final three regular-season practices, with coach Jason Garrett saying Wednesday the quarterback will be "limited at best" to begin the week, per Jon Machota of The…read more

Shut down in tough loss
Prescott completed 25 of 44 passes for 265 yards in Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Whether it was due to his sore shoulder, a big effort on the part of Philly's secondary, or a combination of both, Prescott failed to produce a TD for only the third time all year, and at the worst possible time -- both for Dallas and for those with fantasy shares in the quarterback. Expect him to get plenty of rest during the week as the Cowboys prepare for a must-win game against Washington in Week 17.

Checks out well in throwing session
Prescott was able to throw downfield with no apparent limitations during a workout Saturday, leaving the Cowboys optimistic his sprained right shoulder won't be an issue in Sunday's game against the Eagles, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
Analysis: Prescott has been banged up since Week 14, nursing a sprained left hand and an injured right index finger in addition to the shoulder issue. Though the Cowboys restricted his reps in practice this week on account of the shoulder injury, Prescott enters the all-important Week 16 contest minus a designation. His ability to throw Saturday without any apparent discomfort should embolden Prescott's fantasy managers, especially while the signal-caller takes aim at an Eagles pass defense that has…read more

Cleared to play
Prescott (shoulder) won't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Philadelphia, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Despite being limited at each practice this week, Prescott has been cleared to make the start in a game that likely will decide the winner of the NFC East. He didn't do any throwing Wednesday or Thursday, and his activity at Friday's practice seems to have been limited to lobbing some short passes during position drills, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports. While his active/inactive status is no longer a concern, it's fair to wonder if Prescott will be able to play at his usual…read more

Throwing during practice
Prescott (shoulder) threw a football during individual drills at Friday's practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Previous reports suggested Prescott would be limited to non-throwing activities, but he's apparently made enough progress to at least make some short throws. In any case, the Cowboys have been clear about their expectation for the quarterback to play through his AC joint sprain in Sunday's crucial game against the Eagles. The bigger question is whether Precott will be the best version of himself, or even close to it.

May not throw Friday
Prescott (shoulder) will be a limited practice participant and is unlikely to throw Friday, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old has been limited at practice all week and has yet to throw due to the AC joint sprain in his right shoulder, and it doesn't appear that will change at Friday's practice. The team has indicated to this point that Prescott is still expected to play against the Eagles on Sunday, but realistically he'll need to begin throwing in some capacity in the near future to quell doubts of his availability.

Analysis: According to Clarence E.

Not throwing again Thursday
Prescott (shoulder) didn't throw at Thursday's practice, but the Cowboys expect him to suit up Sunday in Philadelphia, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: With an AC joint sprain in his right throwing shoulder, Prescott seems to be following a similar practice regimen to Wednesday, when he was deemed a limited participant. He likely will earn a similar tag Thursday, but the team appears untroubled about his ability to play this weekend. As evidence, owner Jerry Jones told 105.3 The Fan Dallas on Thursday that he's "not worried" about Prescott and is "totally convinced that he'll be in top form." Prescott's status may not receive clarity, though,…read more

Bothered by throwing shoulder
Prescott (finger) will be limited in Wednesday's practice due to a right shoulder injury he picked up during the first half of Sunday's 44-21 win over the Rams, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Prescott also hurt his right index finger in the Week 14 loss to the Bears, but neither that injury nor the shoulder issue seems to pose much threat to his availability for a crucial Week 16 matchup with the Eagles. Coach Jason Garrett said Prescott won't do much throwing at Wednesday's practice but is "fully expected to play" this weekend in Philadelphia. The quarterback seemed fine in the blowout victory over Los Angeles, completing 15 of 23 passes for 212 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Has 'little' finger injury
Coach Jason Garrett said Monday that Prescott is playing through "a little injury to his (right) index finger," Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: During the Fox broadcast of Sunday's 44-21 smackdown of the Rams, analyst Troy Aikman said Prescott had a "hairline fracture on the top of" the finger in question. Aikman was referencing one of the injuries (also a sprained left hand) he sustained in a Week 14 loss at Chicago. According to Archer and Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News, Prescott does not have a fracture. Instead, Prescott's right index finger was smashed against the Bears, and there's a lot of residual bleeding under the…read more

Efficient in big win over Rams
Prescott completed 15 of 23 passes for 212 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 44-21 win over the Rams. He also gained 12 rushing yards on seven carries.
Analysis: The Cowboys relied on their running game to pound the Rams into submission, but Prescott was deadly when called upon, hitting Jason Witten for a 19-yard TD to open the scoring late in the first quarter and then finding a wide-open Tavon Austin in the second quarter for a 59-yard score. Prescott has fallen behind Jameis Winston in the race for the league's passing-yards crown, but he has bigger fish to fry next Sunday in Philadelphia, as a win would lock up the NFC East title for Dallas.

Fortunately, his sprained left hand and injured right index finger didn't impact his practice reps Wednesday, though the digit in question was taped up during the session, per Todd Archer of ESPN.com.

Has hand sprain, right finger injury
Prescott suffered a sprained left hand and an injury to the right index finger on his right hand during Thursday's 31-24 loss at Chicago, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Prescott had a season-low completion percentage (55.1) Thursday, but by sheer volume he accounted for 334 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions on his 49 official throws. He also didn't fumble, so awry passes were the only indication that he may have been dealing with an injury (or injuries). Coach Jason Garrett expects Prescott to be available for the Cowboys' next game Sunday, Dec. 15 versus the Rams, but the quarterback's practice reps will be interesting to watch in the interim.

Fantasy-friendly numbers in loss
Prescott completed 27 of 49 passes for 334 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Cowboys' 31-24 loss to the Bears on Thursday. He also rushed three times for one yard.
Analysis: Prescott once again satisfied fantasy managers with his performance, but as has increasingly been the case lately, his aesthetically pleasing numbers came attached to a loss. The fourth-year quarterback connected with Amari Cooper from 19 yards out for his one touchdown pass, while exceeding the 300-yard threshold for the second consecutive game and fourth time in the last five overall. The Cowboys' playoff hopes remain alive due to the overall mediocrity of the NFC East, and Prescott will look…read more

Salvages day in garbage time
Prescott completed 32 of 49 passes for 355 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Thursday's 26-15 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: He also gained 25 rushing yards on four carries and completed a two-point conversion to Jason Witten. While the quarterback's final line looks just fine from a fantasy perspective, he struggled for much of the game in the face of a ferocious Buffalo pass rush that sacked him four times and forced two fumbles, one of which Dallas lost. Prescott will try to turn things around for the reeling Cowboys next week on the road against the Bears.

The fourth-year QB will continue his toughest stretch of the season when the Cowboys host the Bills in Week 13.

Continues stellar play vs. Lions
Prescott completed 29 of 46 pass attempts for 444 yards and three touchdowns Sunday against the Lions. He also carried six times for 18 yards in the 35-27 win.
Analysis: Prescott averaged an impressive 9.7 yards per attempt as he eclipsed the 400-yard mark for the second time this season. He completed touchdown passes to Tony Pollard, Randall Cobb and Ezekiel Elliott while boosting his TD:INT to 9:2 over the last three games. Prescott is playing at an elite level, and although next Sunday's matchup with the Patriots will present some unique challenges, he's still worthy of fantasy consideration as the orchestrator of one of the NFL's best offenses.

Posts gaudy numbers in loss
Prescott completed 28 of 46 pass attempts for 397 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Prescott was asked to carry the offense with Ezekiel Elliott getting stuffed with consistency by the Vikings' front. The 26-year-old was able to answer the bell, posting his third-highest yardage total of the season and throwing for three scores for the fourth time this year.

Tosses three touchdowns in win
Prescott completed 22 of 35 passes for 257 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Monday night's 37-18 win over the Giants. He also rushed three times for 12 yards.
Analysis: Prescott got off to a poor start, throwing a pick on his very first pass, but would rally to put together an otherwise strong showing. His 42-yard touchdown to Blake Jarwin got the Cowboys going before halftime, and then his top two wideouts made similarly special plays in the second half. Michael Gallup acrobatically leapt into the end zone on a 15-yard reception to start the fourth quarter, before Amari Cooper raced 45 yards untouched to effectively close the game out on the next drive.

Efficient in easy win
Prescott completed 21 of 27 pass attempts for 239 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's 37-10 win over the Eagles. He added 30 yards and another score on five rush attempts.
Analysis: Prescott picked apart a vulnerable Philadelphia pass defense (ranked 29th heading into Week 7) and added his third rushing touchdown of the season to put the cherry on top of a solid fantasy outing. The 26-year-old has a 3:1 TD:INT ratio against defenses ranked in the bottom half of the league (four games), compared to a 0.75:1 TD:INT ratio against those who grade in the top half (three games).

Quiet in Sunday's loss
Prescott completed 28 of 40 passes for 277 yards without a touchdown or interception and carried the ball three times for 11 yards and a TD in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: The rushing score salvaged his fantasy line a little, and Prescott still had Dallas in position to send the game into overtime but failed to complete a two-point conversion with a blitzing Jamal Adams in his face. Prescott has thrown onto two TD passes during the Cowboys' three-game losing streak, and he'll need to find a way to turn that trend around if the club is going to get back in the win column next week against the Eagles.

Prescott completed 27 of 44 passes for a career-high 463 yards and two touchdowns with three interceptions in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: He also gained 27 rushing yards on four carries. After the Cowboys failed to score a point in the first half, Prescott came out firing after the break but ran out of time in his comeback attempt. It's the first time in his career he's lost a game in which he threw for more than 275 yards, and the three picks also tied his previous career-worst performance. Prescott will look to put together a cleaner line next week on the road against a battered Jets defense.

Prescott's line -- and the Dallas' fortunes -- wouldn't have been as bad if the quarterback was able to convert just one extra drive into a touchdown.

Prescott completed 19 of 32 pass attempts for 246 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception Sunday against the Dolphins. He also carried twice for seven yards and a touchdown during the 31-6 win.
Analysis: Prescott started off a bit slowly, leading his team to just 10 points in the first half while throwing an ill-advised interception on a deep attempt. He turned it up in the second half, during which he scored a rushing touchdown in addition to firing a second scoring pass to Amari Cooper.

He completed a long touchdown pass to Devin Smith in the first quarter before hooking up with Jason Witten and Amari Cooper for shorter scores.

The fourth-year quarterback put together a perfect QB rating of 158.3 on the day, completing passes to seven different receivers, and both he and new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore made a striking statement in their 2019 opener.

Playing on despite no extension
Prescott enters the Cowboys' Week 1 matchup with the Giants without a new contract extension in place but is reportedly comfortable playing the 2019 season on an expiring deal, league sources tell Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Analysis: The final year of Prescott's rookie contract is worth just over $2 million, a relative pittance for a quarterback with 48 career starts under his belt. While Prescott would have liked to enter the current campaign with more long-term security, the insurance policies he has in place in addition to his multi-year endorsement deals -- valued at over $50 million -- give him a sizable nest egg to fall back on in the event he suffers a career-threatening injury or otherwise sees his market value take…read more

Analysis: Prescott didn't miss a throw for the second straight exhibition contest, leading his team on an impressive 97-yard touchdown drive before taking a seat for the remainder of the night. He connected with five different pass catchers and finished averaging a healthy 12.8 yards per attempt. Prescott hasn't received his desired contract extension, but there's still time to get it done before Week 1. He'll likely get more snaps in next Saturday's preseason game against the Titans.

Rejects sizeable contract
Prescott turned down a contract offer from the Cowboys that included $30 million per year, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Prescott is reportedly seeking a contract in the range of $40 million per year. The situation surrounding the 26-year-old quarterback's negotiations with the Cowboys is unusually complex, with Ezekiel Elliott holding out in the hope of earning a new contract and Amari Cooper (heel) entering a contract season. The Cowboys are facing a trio of key young players hoping to receive top-end compensation at their respective positions, with no immediate resolutions in sight.

Completes all four passes
Prescott went 4-for-4 with 23 passing yards during Saturday's preseason opener against the 49ers.
Analysis: Although Prescott played just one drive, there was plenty to talk about, including a nice connection with Michael Gallup, a pass interference call on a deep ball to the latter on the next play, and a completion to himself in the red zone. Prescott exited the game after his team settled for a field goal and was done for the day. He's facing a potential challenge in the absence of Ezekiel Elliott, which could allow Prescott to flourish in a revamped offense with the best group of pass catchers…read more

Offense opening up
Prescott has had more designed run plays called for him and been asked to take more shots downfield so far in training camp, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With Ezekiel Elliott holding out and new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore calling plays, the Dallas offense has shown more wrinkles than it has in the past under Scott Linehan, a trend that should only benefit Prescott if it continues into the regular season. If and when Elliott reports, head coach Jason Garrett might insist on a return to a more conservative, run-heavy status quo, but Prescott's athleticism could allow him to shine if he gets turned loose by Moore.

Discussing new contract
Prescott and the Cowboys exchanged initial extension offers before the end of the team's offseason program, Jori Epstein of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Prescott and Amari Cooper are entering contract seasons, while Ezekiel Elliott is under team control through 2020 thanks to the fifth-year option for first-round picks. The young quarterback said it's viable for each player to rank near the top of his position in contract value, noting how the NFL salary cap consistently has risen in recent years (six straight seasons with an increase of at least $10 million). Prescott is correct in his belief, but that doesn't mean it will be an easy process…read more

Discussing extension
Discussions with Prescott about a contract extension are in progress according to Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones, Kate Hairopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: With defensive end Demarcus Lawrence locked up, Prescott and Amari Cooper are next in line for extensions, followed by Ezekiel Elliott. The 25-year-old quarterback hasn't quite delivered on the promise of his rookie season, but he does provide durability (zero missed games), a winning record (32-16), rushing ability (18 touchdowns) and respectable passing efficiency (66.1 completion percentage, 7.4 yards per attempt). There's also a reasonable expectation for improvement in 2019, with Cooper…read more

In line for huge contract
Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones suggested Prescott has earned a contract extension, Jon Machota of The Dallas Morning News reports. "You look at a quarterback that has had the success [Prescott]'s had," Jones said Tuesday. "He's done everything the right way. I think he deserves to have his contract looked at in a very progressive way."
Analysis: Prescott is entering the final year of his rookie contract, and while he hasn't quite built on his debut campaign the way the Cowboys were hoping, there's no doubt he's a starting-caliber quarterback. His status as a fourth-round pick eliminates the possibility of a fifth-year option, but the team does have the threat of a franchise tag to provide some leverage for negotiations. Prescott and the Cowboys will try to reach an agreement on a long-term extension this offseason.

Efficient in losing effort
Prescott completed 20 of 32 pass attempts for 266 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 30-22 loss to the Rams. He added three rushing yards and another touchdown on two carries.
Analysis: Prescott was asked to do the heavy lifting offensively with Ezekiel Elliott being contained on the ground (20 carries for 47 yards). The 25-year-old did a good job of spreading the ball around after it became apparent that the Rams wanted to key in on Amari Cooper early on. Despite his solid play, Prescott's season comes to an end. The third-year arm finished the regular season with a new career high in passing yards (3,885) with 22 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Still, his numbers pale in…read more

Scores decisive touchdown
Prescott completed 22 of 33 pass attempts for 226 yards, one touchdown and one interception Saturday against the Seahawks. He also carried six times for 29 yards and a touchdown during the 24-22 win.
Analysis: Prescott completed 67 percent of his passes and connected with eight different receivers. He threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Michael Gallup just before halftime and led a pair of scoring drives in the fourth quarter, including one which he capped off with a one-yard plunge to paydirt. In the process, Prescott became the youngest quarterback to win a playoff game in team history and now has more game-winning drives under his belt since entering the league than any other quarterback. He'll…read more

Throws four TD passes
Prescott completed 27 of 44 pass attempts for 387 yards and four touchdowns during Sunday's 36-35 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Prescott acknowledged the possibility of sitting out part of the game, but he hung in until the very end and delivered perhaps his finest performance of the season. He hooked up with Blake Jarwin for three touchdowns before a 32-yard strike to Cole Beasley, which he followed up with the decisive two-point conversion. Prescott struggled over the last two games, so this was a positive way to close out the regular season. The 25-year-old, who finishes the campaign with 3,885 passing yards, 26…read more

Acknowledges possibility of rest
Prescott said he plans to play every snap Sunday against the Giants, but he acknowledged the possibility that doesn't happen, David Moore of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Locked in as the No. 4 seed in the NFC, the Cowboys seemingly intend to use their usual starters but likely will sub players out at some point in the game. Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott have both said they're ready to handle their usual workloads, while star pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence took a more realistic approach, saying there's no way he will play all four quarters, per Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Prescott seems to be in line for the Week 17 start, but there's a…read more

Efficient in division-clinching win
Prescott completed 20 of 25 passes for 161 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions in the Cowboys' 27-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also gained two yards and scored another touchdown on four rushes.
Analysis: Prescott did what he had to do to keep the Cowboys ahead, flinging a four-yard touchdown pass to Michael Gallup late in the third quarter, a score preceded by a seven-yard rushing TD in the first quarter that knotted the game at 7-7. The touchdown on the ground was Prescott's sixth of the campaign, while his 80.0 percent completion rate was his second in the last four contests. Prescott's passing yardage totals have been positively pedestrian the last two games -- 206 and 161, respectively --…read more

Struggles in losing effort
Prescott completed 24 of 39 pass attempts for 206 yards and one interception during Sunday's 23-0 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Prescott completed 62 percent of his passes, but he struggled to generate plays down the field while averaging 5.3 yards per attempt. He failed to get rid of the ball on a couple of crucial sacks, and he threw an interception on the final drive while trying to get his team on the board. Prescott's poor performance comes at an inopportune time for fantasy owners who chose to deploy him following his huge performance last week, when he posted a new career high in passing yardage. He'll look to…read more

Posts enormous line in victory
Prescott completed 42 of 54 pass attempts for 455 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 29-23 overtime win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Prescott had been fairly dormant through the majority of three quarters, but his arm caught fire in the fourth and overtime periods, resulting in several career-best figures. The 25-year-old normally produces stat lines resembling a game manager, but he tore the top off a vulnerable Eagles secondary. The addition of Amari Cooper at the trade deadline has certainly improved Prescott's play. The signal caller is averaging 285.7 passing yards in six games with his new weapon, compared to 202.4…read more

Turns in efficient outing
Prescott completed 24 of 28 passes for 248 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions in the Cowboys' 13-10 win over the Saints on Thursday. He also rushed five times for 22 yards and fumbled twice, recovering one.
Analysis: Prescott was razor sharp in terms of completion percentage and averaged a solid 8.9 yards per attempt. He also managed to stay interception-free for the fourth straight game. However, he was sacked seven times and couldn't hold on to the ball on two of them, with the second one transpiring with 2:42 remaining at the Saints' 15-yard line. Cameron Jordan forced and recovered a fumble on a jarring hit of the Dallas quarterback, but the potentially-costly mistake was neutralized by a Jourdan Lewis…read more

Accounts for three touchdowns
Prescott completed 22 of 31 pass attempts for 289 yards and two touchdowns Thursday against the Redskins. He also carried six times for 18 yards and a touchdown during his team's 31-23 win.
Analysis: Prescott completed 71 percent of his pass attempts and averaged 9.3 yards per attempt as he set a new season high in passing yardage. He was having a rather pedestrian game until the third quarter, when he connected with Amari Cooper for touchdowns of 40 and 90 yards on back-to-back drive. Prescott also continued a string of nice contributions as a ball carrier, scoring his fifth rushing touchdown in the last six games with a nifty five-yard run in the fourth. He's playing his best football of…read more

Scores rushing touchdown
Prescott completed 22 of 32 pass attempts for 208 yards during Sunday's 22-19 win over the Falcons. He also carried four times for five yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Prescott didn't generate many big plays, though he went without a turnover for the second straight game and converted some important third downs to sustain drives. One of his most crucial contributions came on a four-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter, which put his team ahead for the first time. Prescott doesn't do much damage through the air most weeks, but he's boosted his fantasy value with three rushing touchdowns in his last four games. He enjoyed a productive game against the…read more

Scores twice in victory
Prescott completed 26 of 36 pass attempts for 270 yards and a touchdown, adding nine yards and another touchdown on six carries in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Fresh off a vote of confidence from his owner earlier this week, Prescott led his team to a key division victory in a hostile environment. After a slow start to the year, the 25-year-old has begun to pick things up over his last four games, averaging 242.3 passing yards per game to go along with six touchdowns to just one interception. Not known for his mobility, Prescott has also helped his fantasy stock with 135 yards and three more scores over that four-game span. The signal caller doesn't…read more

Earns endorsement from Jerry Jones
Owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday on his weekly radio show that Prescott remains the Cowboys' starting quarterback both this season and for the foreseeable future, Jon Machota of The Dallas Morning News. "Listen, Dak is the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys," Jones said. "He's young and he's going to get extended."
Analysis: After a highly impressive rookie campaign in which he displaced the since-retired Tony Romo as the No. 1 signal-caller, Prescott has regressed over the subsequent season and a half. Through eight games in 2018, Prescott has already turned the ball more often (five interceptions, four lost fumbles) than he did while starting throughout his rookie season (four interceptions, four lost fumbles). Two of those turnovers came in Monday's game against the Titans, with the Cowboys taking a 28-14 loss…read more

Two touchdowns, two turnovers in loss
Prescott completed 21 of 31 passes for 243 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Monday night's 28-14 loss to the Titans. He also rushed twice for 11 yards and lost a fumble.
Analysis: Prescott got Dallas into scoring position on each of its first three drives, but experienced mixed results following a missed field goal to start. After hooking up with new weapon Amari Cooper on a four-yard touchdown on the Cowboys' second series, Prescott forced a throw in the end zone to Cooper on the team's third possession, resulting in an interception. While Prescott would find Allen Hurns for a 23-yard score before halftime, one of the five sacks he took resulted in a lost fumble early…read more
