The Dallas Cowboys face a tumultuous season, compounded by starting quarterback Dak Prescott's hamstring injury, which may end his season prematurely. Prescott has suffered a partial avulsion of his right hamstring tendon, leading to speculation about potential surgery, and the team is likely to place him on injured reserve. With the Cowboys dropping five games this season, including three straight losses, their playoff hopes are dwindling, and they may need to rely on backup quarterbacks, Cooper Rush or Trey Lance. Amid these struggles, the Cowboys traded for wide receiver Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers, a move criticized by analysts as unlikely to significantly improve their performance. ESPN's Stephen A. Smith has declared the Cowboys' season effectively over and suggested they should focus on rebuilding rather than attempting to salvage a lost campaign. Overall, the team's poor performance and questionable decisions indicate a pressing need for a complete overhaul in strategy and personnel.
