Availability
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott will undergo season-ending surgery on his injured hamstring Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Prescott is dealing with a partial avulsion of his hamstring, according to Jerry Jones. Prescott will be placed on injured reserve and he will turn his focus to rehabbing for the 2025 season. The Cowboys are expected to continue to start Cooper Rush at QB, which will be a downgrade for the Cowboys’ pass catchers for the remainder of the season.
Dak Prescott is seeking a second opinion on whether or not he should have surgery on his injured hamstring.
Fantasy Impact
Prescott is looking to avoid surgery and instead rest and rehab. Either way, his season is still likely over.
Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott is weighing options regarding his hamstring injury, including a potentially season-ending surgery. He is expected to be recovered in time for 2025.
Fantasy Impact
Prescott injured his hamstring in Week 9 and was succeeded by veteran backup Cooper Rush to finish the loss against the Atlanta Falcons. However, after the Cowboys debated a potential injured reserve stint, it seems his 2024 season may be over. However, he was not placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 10, so the Cowboys can not sign another QB yet. While they weigh options, Rush will start with Trey Lance serving as the backup, and Prescott may go on IR ahead of Week 11.
Cowboys Jerry Jones said they're still not sure if they will put Dak Prescott on injured reserve.

"He doesn't want surgery," Jones said. "He wants to be on the field and go for it. We'll just see how it goes here." This will remain a situation to monitor.
Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said Dak Prescott (hamstring) is still going through the process.
Fantasy Impact
“I know he wants to keep playing. … It’s obviously a serious injury," McCarthy said. Prescott has not been placed on IR yet, but it remains a possibility. It will be Cooper Rush starting on Sunday for Dallas against the Eagles.
