Dak Prescott, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, is enjoying a solid preseason campaign with no contract or injury issues.
Stephon Jones, Cowboys vice-president, says that this camp is the best Prescott has experienced since joining the team in 2016.
“I thought he’s had his best camp that I’ve seen him have since he’s been a Cowboy,” Jones said, per Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News. “Velocity, his accuracy, the whole thing. Obviously, as the quarterbacks get older, they get better. The good ones do. They get better every year. There’s no question in my mind, I think he’s had his best training camp he’s ever had.”

Prescott was still recovering last offseason from the horrific ankle injury he sustained during the 2020 season. Prescott was also involved in contract negotiations, which would eventually lead to a four-year extension of his contract worth $160 million.
The Cowboys are disappointed that Prescott’s preseason play and good health isn’t catching up to his wide receiver team. James Washington and Michael Gallup will both be available to start the 2022 season. CeeDee Lamb, Noah Brown and James Washington both sustained minor injuries earlier in this week.
Prescott will not be available for tomorrow’s matchup with the Chargers as he sat out the team’s preseason opener versus the Broncos.
