NFL News: Cowboys QB Dak Prescott injures hamstring in loss to Falcons

Along with dropping their third game in a row on Sunday, the Dallas Cowboys lost quarterback Dak Prescott, who injured his right hamstring in a 27-21 road defeat to the Atlanta Falcons.

Prescott is slated to undergo an MRI exam on Monday.

With Dallas (3-5) down 27-13 near the end of the third quarter, Prescott appeared to grimace after a 10-yard pass to Jalen Brooks. He stayed in the game but was ruled out with 11:08 left in the fourth quarter.

Speaking to reporters postgame, Prescott said it was hard for him to predict whether he’d miss time with the injury.

“I would say that I’ll be out there next week,” Prescott said. “Once again, I’ve got to see. Luckily, I can say I’ve healed fast, I’ve progressed fast on injuries and things, so thankful for that. Got to get a picture of it. When we get a picture of it, I guess we’ll see how bad it is.

“It’ll take a lot for me to not be out there, I’ll say, personally.”

Prescott said he first felt the pain the play before the completion to Brooks, when he was getting up after a 5-yard scramble.

Replays showed Prescott also nursing a swollen right throwing hand, but that is of secondary concern, if any at all, as owner Jerry Jones told reporters he’s more focused on the hamstring.

“I am concerned about that,” Jones said.

Making his 36th straight start, Prescott was 18-of-24 passing for 133 yards and a touchdown, along with a season-high 30 rushing yards. The 31-year-old entered the day with 24 rushing yards this season.

With Prescott out, Cooper Rush stepped and led Dallas’ comeback bid, tossing for 115 yards and a touchdown. Rush has played sparingly of late behind Prescott, but after the longtime starting QB broke his right thumb in the 2022 season opener, Rush went 4-1 as the starter.

Prescott also missed 11 games in 2020 with a right ankle injury and sat out one game the next season due to a strained right calf.

If Prescott were to miss time, Trey Lance would likely move up from his No. 3 QB role to back up Rush.
