Cowboys place Dak Prescott on injured reserve

The Cowboys have reached a decision on whether to place quarterback Dak Prescott on injured reserve.

Executive vice president Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that they will be putting Prescott on the list due to the hamstring injury he suffered last Sunday. Prescott will miss at least four games due to the injury, but Jones said the team has no clear idea when or if the quarterback will return this season.

“Right now I don’t think so everyone knows it whether it will be four weeks, six weeks or the entire season,” Jones said, via Jon Machota of TheAthletic.com. “We just have to keep monitoring that and see where it takes us.”

At 3-5, there is no guarantee that the Cowboys will have any meaningful football left to play if Prescott is able to return this season, and the results they get with Cooper Rush running the offense could factor into any decision to move Prescott to be brought back this year.
