Regarding glitz and glamour in the NFL, Dak Prescott is somewhat of a whiz. Even as a rookie Dallas Cowboys quarterback, Prescott’s bow-ties caught the attention of fans and fraternity alike. During the opening week of the 2023 NFL season, Dak Prescott outdid the ever-famous NBA tunnel walks with his sharp blue suit, a symphonic ode to his team colors. Hence, it is no surprise that his sense of vogue bleeds onto the field as much as it stuns off the field.

Similar uniforms might be mandated for all Cowboys players, but Dak Prescott has found a way to make him stand out above the rest. From uniform patches to helmet swagger, the 30-year-old’s whimsy knows no bounds. In fact, Dak Prescott has been known to experiment with his gear time and again. This begs the question- what makes Dak Prescott’s helmet unique?
