The latest news surrounding the Dallas Cowboys is here.
Dak Prescott couldn't hold back his emotions after recent loss for the Cowboys.
Dallas Cowboys franchise quarterback Dak Prescott admitted just how bad his team’s failed season has made him feel about himself.
Prescott told The Dallas Morning News this week he couldn’t hold back the emotion or the tears when he sat down and realized just how bad his team really is.
“The other day, after the game, I guess, it all just hit me,” Prescott said of the experience shortly after his team was blown out by the Houston Texans Monday night. “Boom, right. A couple of tears came down.
“This is going to hurt. It’s going to suck at times. You just have to understand this is one of the moments that it does. I don’t want anything right now other than to let it suck. It’s understanding and being able to voice that, ‘Yeah, I’m blessed to be where I’m at.’”
Despite barely seeing the field, Stephen Jones believes getting Trey Lance was a good thing.
According to Stephen Jones, the Dallas Cowboys would trade for Trey Lance again if they had a chance.
The Cowboys executive vice president spoke highly of the team’s current backup quarterback during his latest appearance on 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM). Lance is currently expected to sit behind starter Cooper Rush, who has been described as giving Dallas the “best chance to win.”
“[Lance] is a top-tier pick, a guy we had at the top. As you know, Dak [Prescott] was coming up for a contract and we wanted to take a look at a good, young talent and didn’t feel like we could get anything from a quality standpoint like we could get with Trey,” Jones said. “As it turns out, we ended up signing Dak long-term. So obviously that puts a little less need in terms of having to rush to do something with Trey. Matter of fact, it makes it hard because Trey, I’m sure, is wanting to see what’s out there now that we have committed to Dak long-term. But I don’t regret that at all.”
Dallas originally acquired Lance ahead of the 2023 season, sending a 2024 fourth-round pick to San Francisco for the young quarterback’s services. Lance has yet to receive an extended look with the Cowboys, appearing in only one regular-season game since joining the roster.
Lance briefly stepped in for Rush during the team’s 34-6 Week 10 loss to Philadelphia, going 4-for-6 through the air for 21 yards and an interception. He also ran for 17 yards on three carries.
