Prescott, Schottenheimer Aim to End Cowboys' Drought

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott enters his 10th NFL season highly motivated to end the team's nearly 30-year Super Bowl drought, with winning the championship established as the only acceptable outcome. Prescott is healthy after a previous hamstring injury and is embracing leadership as the team adjusts to changes under offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, who has introduced more pre-snap motion and less reliance on a shotgun-heavy offense. Schottenheimer, not the head coach but the offensive coordinator, works alongside head coach Mike McCarthy to reinforce Super Bowl aspirations. Despite ongoing contract negotiations involving defensive star Micah Parsons, Prescott has supported his teammate and stressed the importance of team unity during adversity. Training camp has featured Prescott's openness to learning and maintaining high energy, qualities praised by teammates and coaches alike. With offensive changes and a renewed sense of urgency, the Cowboys see this season as a pivotal opportunity to break their championship drought.
