Cowboys' Dak Prescott Doing a 'Hell of a Job' with Injury Rehab, Stephen Jones Says

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is working his way back from a hamstring injury this offseason and seems to be on the right track.

"Dak's doing great," Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said, per Todd Archer of ESPN. "He's very thrilled with where he is, and I know the trainers are too. I feel like he's doing a hell of a job."

Jones also said Prescott will likely have "some limitations" during the offseason program as he prepares for 2025.

Prescott suffered a partial avulsion of his right hamstring tendon (partial tear off from the bone) during his team's 27-21 road loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Nov. 3.

Dallas placed Prescott on season-ending injured reserve. He underwent successful surgery as well.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones reported two days later on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas (h/t Archer) that his prognosis was good.

"It's a more common injury in hockey, and he's got doctors that are very familiar with how to repair that," Jones said. "And his prognosis is wonderful. It just means that we're not going to have him the rest of the year."

Prescott had successful surgery in New York on Wednesday, Nov. 13.

The former Mississippi State star only played five games in 2020 due to a dislocation and compound fracture of his right ankle suffered on Oct. 11 against the New York Giants.

He also sat five games in 2022 because of a broken right thumb suffered in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The hamstring injury ultimately cost Prescott nine games. He finished the season with 1,978 passing yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions on a 64.7 completion rate.

Prescott signed a four-year, $240 million contract extension ($231 million guaranteed, and an $80 million signing bonus) before the season. He's a three-time Pro Bowler who's led Dallas to the playoffs five times in his nine seasons. Prescott has also thrown for 31,437 yards and 213 touchdowns, including an NFL-high 36 in 2023.
