Prescott (ankle) left Wednesday's practice due to soreness in his throwing arm, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The Cowboys might consider scaling back Prescott's practice reps after he seemingly handled full workloads during the first four sessions of training camp. Some arm soreness in practice No. 5 isn't too worrisome, and a team spokesman has already called Prescott's removal from practice "purely precautionary." The quarterback is coming back from a severe ankle injury, but both he and head coach Mike McCarthy have said Prescott is expected to make an appearance in the preseason. Before that happens, he'll likely need to do contact work at practice.
