The Dallas Cowboys’ hopes for a victorious season took a severe hit Sunday as quarterback Dak Prescott suffered an injury during their 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Prescott’s Painful Exit
In the third quarter, Prescott was sacked by Falcons defensive end Grady Jarrett, forcing him to leave the game. The Cowboys’ medical staff quickly evaluated him, and Prescott was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Cowboys’ Concerns Grow
Prescott’s injury has sparked concerns about his availability for upcoming games. The severity of the injury remains unknown, but initial reports suggest a possible ankle or leg issue.
“Dak’s our leader, and we need him healthy,” said Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. “We’ll monitor his progress closely.”
Backup QB Comes Up Short
With Prescott out, backup quarterback Cooper Rush took over, but struggled to replicate the starter’s success. Rush completed 12 of 20 passes for 123 yards and one interception.
Falcons Capitalize on Cowboys’ Misfortune
The Falcons seized the opportunity, capitalizing on Prescott’s absence to secure their win. Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns.
What’s Next?
As the Cowboys await Prescott’s diagnosis, fans hold their breath. Can Dallas recover from this setback, or will Prescott’s injury derail their season?
