Three years after Prescott suffered a gruesome fractured ankle five games into the McCarthy’s first season as coach in 2020, resulting in two surgeries to heal, the Cowboys are encouraging him to use his legs and be a dual-threat quarterback again. He rushed for six touchdowns in his each of his first three seasons and three in his next two. Prescott has totaled one rushing touchdown in each of the past two seasons with the his rushing yards and attempts lower than than any year, save for the injury shortened season in 2020.
Prescott has rushed 11 times for 59 yards and an 18-yard touchdown in the past two games against the Chargers and Rams to complement a passing efficiency and accuracy that has seen no equal during that time span. “That’s an extension of the play and really the second play begins,” Prescott said. As long as they’re given me lanes as long as long as that’s happening, that’s me listening to my feet as we’ve talked about, and just yet playing the game so it’s a little 50/50.”But he says Prescott’s legs are a big part of what they need work for the offense to go.
