It was a challenging Sunday night for Prescott. He registered a passer rating of 51.6, managing only 153 yards on 14-of-24 passing. Moreover, with one touchdown and three interceptions, this became his third game to record triple interceptions. Prescott is in the third year of the four-year, $160 million deal he inked in 2021, and it seems he's set to see the contract through.
ESPN's Matt Miller emphasized the financial implications of the Cowboys parting ways with Prescott anytime soon.
«Should Dak Prescott be released or traded, he would carry a $62 million cap hit,» Miller pointed out in a tweet. «It's highly unlikely to envision him with a different team next year. Similarly, Dallas might not bring in competition not already present on their roster.»Despite his efforts to curtail interceptions, Prescott's recent performance suggests a persistent issue. Both of the Cowboys' losses this season saw him making these mistakes.
Turnovers were an issue for Prescott last season, and with four this season already, it seems the pattern continues.
Conversely, Brock Purdy recorded 252 yards on 17-of-24 passing and achieved a career-best of four touchdowns.
The Cowboys, with a current 3-2 record, also faced a loss against the Arizona Cardinals. Their next matchup is set against the Los Angeles Chargers on «Monday Night Football.»
