Cowboys Lose to Falcons, Prescott Injured

The Dallas Cowboys suffered a 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, dropping their record to 3-5, while quarterback Dak Prescott exited the game due to a hamstring injury. Prescott had completed 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and one touchdown before his injury, raising concerns about his availability for upcoming games, as noted by owner Jerry Jones. Cooper Rush replaced Prescott and managed to lead a late touchdown drive, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Falcons. Atlanta's Kirk Cousins threw for three touchdowns, and Bijan Robinson contributed significantly with 86 rushing yards. With the Cowboys' playoff hopes dwindling, Prescott has emphasized the urgency of upcoming games, stating, "there’s no more margin of error." The team's performance and Prescott's health are critical as they face a challenging schedule ahead.
