The Dallas Cowboys pulled off a much-needed win over the Houston Texans in Week 4, and that puts this team at 2-2 for the season. Quarterback Dak Prescott wasn’t only happy but obviously relieved with the victory, because it puts the Cowboys in a much better position early in the season than a 1-3 start would have brought.
But, Prescott is working through a bit of an injury. After the 34-30 win, he admitted that he was playing through pain. He even said that he basically had his hand stepped on, and it was swollen, so he wrapped it up during his talk with the media. He still notched 335 yards on 32-for-45 passing, even with the swelling.
Dak Prescott reveals what happened to his hand
“Dak Prescott said his right hand got ‘stepped on’ on the intentional grounding play. Little swelling. He said he’s fine,” Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reported.
So, it’s a scary thing to think that Prescott may be injured after this thrilling win, but he appears to have it under control. As the next few days pan out, he’ll surely be asked about it again, and more information will come out.
After the game, Prescott also said he talked to the Big Guy during the game.
“I want it like that, (with) the ball in my hands at the end of the game,” Prescott said, according to Eric Edholm of Yahoo Sports via AOL. “I am thankful for that. If you give me these games. I asked God, give me one more chance.”
He added, “Thank my guys for going out there and blocking, CeeDee, George going out there making great catches. Can’t do it without any of those guys.”
