Jerry Jones: QB Dak Prescott ‘likely’ to join injured reserve
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones announced on Tuesday that Dak Prescott might join the injured reserve. This will put Jones out of the lineup for at least four matches. “It’s likely we’ll IR him,” Jones said on his weekly radio hit on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. “We’ll see how his rehab goes.” However, even before Dallas has fully understood Prescott’s current status, they are already preparing for his absence. “It’s an extended period of time here, so I wouldn’t dare make a prediction when it could be,” Jones said. Prescott wounded his hamstring in Sunday’s 27-21 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons. He left the game early in the fourth quarter after the Falcons got a two-score lead. Prescott finished 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and touchdown while running three times for 30 yards. Cooper Rush substituted for Prescott and completed 13 of 25 passes for 115 yards and one touchdown. Despite Dallas’ record and Prescott injured, they traded for wideout Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers in place of 2025 draft picks on Tuesday.
