It’s no secret that the Jerry Jones-owned NFL franchise Dallas Cowboys find themselves in all sorts of problems heading into Week 13. A major reason behind their decline in recent weeks is the absence of a starting quarterback in Dak Prescott.
The former Rookie of the Year awardee suffered a nasty double compound ankle fracture in their Week 5 win over NFC East rivals, New York Giants.
It was later revealed that Prescott will be out for the rest of the season after undergoing surgery earlier this year. The Cowboys are certainly not the same without Prescott in their starting line-up.

“So I know what it means to be ready, to stay ready in case a guy gets injured in front of you. And now to be that guy that’s injured, for the first time in my career, I’m missing the rest of the season, it’s different, it’s tough.
“But for me, as I talk about the mental capacity, for me it’s about creating and making small victories.

The Cowboys are currently in a tough spot as far as the 2020 NFL season is concerned. They are last in the NFC East and are slowly losing pace in the race for the Playoffs. Let’s hope that the return of Dak Prescott will spur the Cowboys to greater heights in 2021.
