Ouch! Two Hits Take Dak Out of Game

On Sunday, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott took a big hit. First, New Orleans Saints linebacker Kaden Elliss tackled him, causing his right hand to swell. If that wasn’t enough, Dak’s right hamstring suddenly tightened up, forcing him off the field. The Cowboys announced that his hamstring was the main issue. Although Dak briefly returned, he was clearly struggling. He quickly headed to the medical tent to check his hand, while backup quarterback Cooper Rush began warming up. By then, the score was 27-13 in favor of the Saints. In that game, Dak completed 18 out of 24 passes, racking up 133 yards and one touchdown. He also carried the ball three times for 30 yards. This season, Dak had already carried the ball 13 times, covering a total of 54 yards. A tough day for Dak, indeed! Playing through pain is never easy, and it’s crucial for both players and teams to balance push and caution.
