Dak Prescott was out all of last season with an ankle injury, and so far, his comeback has been phenomenal. The Cowboys are sitting at a record of 5-1 and their only loss came against a fiery Tampa Bay Buccaneers squad. Last night, the Cowboys were in tough against the New England Patriots, although in the end, they were able to pull out a 35-29 win in overtime and a lot of it was because of Dak’s heroics.
Unfortunately, the win seems to have come at a cost, as after the game, Prescott was having some calf issues on his right leg. According to reporters like Ed Werder, Prescott couldn’t even put weight on the leg and was getting some help from Ezekiel Elliott.
