Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and his wife have officially entered a new chapter of their lives—parenthood. The beloved face of America’s Team took to social media on Tuesday to announce the birth of their newborn son, sharing a heartwarming photo of the family’s newest addition wrapped in a Cowboys-themed blanket.
“Beyond blessed. Welcome to the world, little man,” Prescott wrote. “You’ve already made our lives richer than we could have imagined.”
The couple, who have kept much of their personal life private, received an outpouring of support from fans, teammates, and NFL players across the league. The Cowboys’ official account quickly reposted the announcement, adding, “Congratulations to QB1 and the newest Cowboy fan!”
Teammates and Legends Join In
Among the many who sent love to the Prescott family was Cowboys legend Emmitt Smith, who shared a touching message:
“Fatherhood is the greatest gift. Cherish every moment, Dak—you’ll be an MVP at home now too.”
Meanwhile, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb surprised the new parents with a custom-made Cowboys onesie and a pair of tiny cleats signed by the team. “He’s got the swag already,” Lamb joked in an Instagram Story. “Can’t wait to toss a football with the little guy someday.”
Former teammate Ezekiel Elliott, now with the New England Patriots, also chimed in with a video call and promised to be the “fun uncle” when he’s back in Dallas during the offseason.
A Moment Beyond Football
This joyful moment comes as Prescott continues to lead one of the NFL’s most scrutinized franchises with resilience and leadership. As he prepares for the upcoming season, balancing fatherhood and football will mark a new personal milestone.
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer shared a brief statement during OTAs: “We’re thrilled for Dak and his family. It’s a special time, and we’ll support him however we can. He’s going to be an incredible dad—he already leads with heart.”
Cowboys Nation Rejoices
Fans across social media flooded the Prescott family with well wishes, celebrating both the quarterback’s achievements on the field and now, off it. Some joked that the team’s future QB1 had just been born.
One fan wrote, “Looks like we’ve already got a 2047 draft pick lined up!”
With the love of his teammates and a city that adores him, Dak Prescott now has another role to embrace—father. And if his leadership on the gridiron is any indication, this new chapter will be his most rewarding yet.
Congratulations to the Prescott family—from Cowboys Nation and beyond!
