Overview
- At 32, the Cowboys quarterback said "Forties would be a good number" and that he now views playing into his 40s as realistic.
- Through five games he is completing 71.3% of his passes with 10 touchdowns and three interceptions, and Dallas is 2-2-1.
- Prescott is under contract through 2028 and is closing in on team marks, needing 150 passing yards to pass Troy Aikman for second in franchise history and one win to move into third in quarterback victories with 79.
- His longevity bid is framed by prior absences for a fractured/dislocated ankle in 2020, a broken thumb in 2022, and hamstring avulsion surgery in 2024.
- Next Gen Stats show increased under-center usage for a second straight week, including an 8-of-9, 85-yard, four-touchdown line on those snaps, as MVP chatter grows but remains tied to team success and a struggling defense.
