Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Moves to injured reserve
The Dallas Cowboys placed Dak Prescott (hamstring) on injured reserve Monday.This move is merely procedural for Prescott, who underwent surgery to address the partial avulsion of his right hamstring last Wednesday following the injury he suffered Week 9 in Atlanta. While Prescott's recovery process is expected to take upwards of three months, Dallas will turn to Cooper Rush under center for the time being. In addition to Rush, the Cowboys also have 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance on the active roster.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Gets surgery Wednesday
Dak Prescott underwent surgery Wednesday to address the partial avulsion of his right hamstring, David Moore of The Dallas Morning News reports.According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Prescott will likely need three months to fully recover from surgery, which means that he should be ready for some, if not all, of the offseason program. With his 2024 season over, he'll finish with 1,978 yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions on 64.7 percent passing and 13 carries for 54 yards and one touchdown in eight appearances. Cooper Rush will continue to direct the Dallas Cowboys offense, but the potential exists for Trey Lance to see time under center or even start at some point over the final eight contests of the regular season.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Season-ending surgery confirmed
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that Dak Prescott will undergo season-ending surgery in New York on Wednesday to address a partial avulsion of his right hamstring, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.After seeking one final medical opinion on his hamstring Monday, Prescott has elected to proceed with surgery rather than treating the injury through rest and rehab. According to Jones, Prescott's long-term prognosis is "wonderful," and while the quarterback will miss the remainder of the season, he should be ready to go for training camp, if he isn't fully cleared for OTAs. Cooper Rush started under center in Sunday's loss to the Eagles and will again direct the offense in Week 11 against the Texans, though it wouldn't be surprising if the Cowboys also gave an extended look to Trey Lance at some point. Prescott will conclude his ninth NFL campaign with a 64.7 percent completion rate on 286 pass attempts for 1,978 yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions to go with 54 yards and a touchdown on 13 rushing attempts over his eight appearances.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: One more meeting with doctor on tap
Dak Prescott, who has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, will meet with another specialist Monday before a decision is made on whether he'll undergo season-ending surgery to address a partial avulsion of his right hamstring, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Prescott has already sought several medical opinions on his injury, with all having reportedly recommended surgery. He'll meet with one final medical expert Monday, but if the doctor agrees with the previous assessments of his injury, Prescott will undergo surgery Wednesday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. An official recovery timeline wouldn't be provided until surgery is completed, but a procedure of this sort typically entails about a four-month recovery period. Cooper Rush will take over as the Dallas Cowboys' starting quarterback in Week 10, and the Cowboys could also deploy certain packages that take advantage of backup Trey Lance's rushing ability.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Season-ending surgery likely on tap
Dak Prescott is expected to undergo season-ending surgery in the near future to repair the partial avulsion to his right hamstring, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.A recovery timeline for the procedure would range from 4-to-5 months, meaning the quarterback would miss the rest of the season, and his availability for the start of OTAs could also be affected. The Dallas Cowboys didn't place Prescott on injured reserve Saturday, but the team could be saving the additional roster spot for another time. Cooper Rush will take over as the team's immediate starter Sunday versus the Eagles, but it's possible Trey Lance will be worked into the mix if the Cowboys fall out of playoff contention.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: IR stint likely
Executive vice president Stephen Jones said Friday on 105.3 The Fan Dallas that the Dallas Cowboys likely will place Dak Prescott (hamstring) on injured reserve, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.An IR stint for Prescott has been bandied about since Tuesday and the ensuing diagnosis of a partial avulsion of his right hamstring became known one day later. Earlier Friday, team owner Jerry Jones expressed uncertainty on 105.3 The Fan Dallas about Prescott going on the reserve list, stating, "He doesn't want surgery. He wants to be on the field and go for it. We'll see how it goes here." But Stephen Jones was more forthright Friday afternoon. "I think it's probably no way he can be back in the four-week timeframe, so we'll put him over there, and we'll have that roster spot to use in terms of the next four weeks and go from there." While the move isn't official yet, it'll need to be by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday in order to clear a roster spot ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles. As long as Prescott is sidelined, Cooper Rush will start Week 10 and beyond, with Trey Lance backing him up and perhaps even getting a chance to start himself at some point.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Unsure about injured reserve
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday that he's still not sure if Dak Prescott (hamstring) will be placed on injured reserve, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports."[Prescott] doesn't want surgery," Jone said. "He wants to be on the field and go for it. We'll just see how it goes here." Recent reports suggest Prescott likely will miss at least 4-to-6 weeks, with a partial avulsion of his right hamstring potentially requiring season-ending surgery. Jones is suggesting that Prescott hopes to return before the four-week mark, but it's unclear if the goal is realistic or if he'd be able to play at anything close to his usual level of performance. Fantasy managers should brace for the possibility of Prescott missing the rest of the season and giving way to backup QB Cooper Rush, with some chance of third-stringer Trey Lance eventually making starts.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Out 4-to-6 weeks at least
Dak Prescott sustained a partial avulsion of his right hamstring in Sunday's loss to Atlanta, and his best-case recovery timetable is 4-to-6 weeks, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.Prescott is expected to be placed on injured reserve as a result, but the Dallas Cowboys have yet to make such a transaction as they seek varying opinions on how to proceed with his rehab. Rest and icing the region are the likely routes to take, but there's also a possibility that he'll require surgery, depending on the grade of the injury. Cooper Rush will step in for Prescott as Dallas' starter for as long as the latter is sidelined, while Trey Lance will be active on game days as the backup quarterback.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Likely to go on IR
Dallas Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday that Dak Prescott (hamstring) will miss "an extended period of time" and is likely to be placed on injured reserve, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.Head coach Mike McCarthy had already announced Monday that Prescott would miss the Cowboys' Week 10 game against the Eagles due to the hamstring injury he suffered in the Week 9 loss to the Falcons, but Jones' comments imply that the franchise quarterback will miss at least three more contests beyond that. Cooper Rush will step in as the Cowboys' new starting quarterback beginning this Sunday, while Trey Lance will move into the backup role. While Jones didn't offer up a clear recovery timeline for Prescott, the 3-5 Cowboys could elect to hold the 31-year-old quarterback out beyond four games if the team finds itself out of playoff contention and begins to prioritize draft position in 2025.
