Cowboys cautious with Prescott (shoulder) in practice

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott wasn’t expected to throw much in practice on Wednesday as the team prepares for its NFC East showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Prescott is nursing a right shoulder injury sustained in the Cowboys’ 44-21 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. His MRI after the game came back negative, per coach Jason Garrett.

“He just banged it up and it’s hard for him to function right now,” Garrett said on Wednesday, “so (I) don’t want him throwing much in practice today.”

Prescott participated in stretching during Wednesday’s portion of practice that was open to the media. He reportedly did not throw a pass during that time.


The 26-year-old Prescott was injured as he was tackled by Rams linebacker Clay Matthews. Prescott did not miss a snap.

“He’s as tough as they come,” Garrett said. “His physical toughness and mental toughness are on par with anybody I’ve been around, and that’s just what he’s all about. He handles success. He handles adversity. He handles issues as well as anybody.”

Prescott completed 15 of 23 passes for 212 yards and two touchdowns against the Rams. He has thrown for 4,334 yards with 26 touchdowns and 11 interceptions this season for the Cowboys (7-7), who visit the Eagles (7-7) on Sunday (4:25 p.m. ET).
