Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had trash thrown at him and was booed by some fans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, as he left the field with an injury Sunday night.
Prescott left the game amid a flurry of boos during the game's 4th quarter due to a thumb injury, which will likely sideline him for at least six weeks, according to ESPN.
Some fans at the game who were upset with the quarterback expressed their frustration by pelting him with trash.
Earlier this year, fans at the stadium threw trash at referees and players at the end of the Cowboys' first-round loss in the playoffs last season. Prescott praised the fans in January for throwing debris at the refs, saying "credit to them" in a press conference following the playoff loss last season.
The thumb injury means Prescott will likely miss at least one game for the third season in a row. In 2020, Prescott suffered an injury to his right ankle in week 5 against the New York Giants that forced him to sit out the rest of the season, and in 2021, he suffered a calf strain that caused him to miss a week 7 game against the Minnesota Vikings.
"It's very disappointing, but injuries happen, can't necessarily control it, just unfortunate," Prescott said in a press conference after the game. "Obviously going to miss some time, not be there for my team, and that's what hurts more than anything, especially after the start we just put out there. Wanted to be able to respond, and not necessarily having that opportunity for several weeks, yeah, it's unfortunate."
The Cowboys lost the game to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 19-3, with Prescott finishing the game with 14 pass completions for 134 yards, one interception, and no touchdowns. With the loss, the Cowboys remain winless against Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady.
You know how cheap Jerry is..............................😉
Imagine being a Cowboys and an Aggies fan this weekend...OUCH!
Who watches NFL now?
Kneeling, Trans-Cheerleaders, Woke politics, Trashy halftime shows, etc
After that first half, knock me over with a feather.
And what the heck was with the kickers yesterday, so many missed kicks.
First week. Edge rusher Watt goes down in Pittsburg after signing for the big bucks. It’s not worth it from a business standpoint. Then you got the crazies who live and die by this crap. At least they’re not living in campsites in the cities. In VDH’s column(American Greatness) we’re both affluent and bored. This is the end result.
Think Dr. Zhivago when Julie Christie walks past the homeless to shoot Rod Steiger at the high-end Christmas party. The high number of homeless were huddled around campfires. The end result was the Bolsheviks.
Jerry Jones should give Dak….. the Scott Frost deal. Give home Millions to leave the Cowboys.
And the Texans tied the Colts!..................
Who follows the NFL anymore? The players are mostly trash, fundamentals are sorely lacking, and the fans are nothing but a bunch of beer-swilling “tough guys”.
Gamblers?
Players today simply quit slightest hurt
Archie broke arm
Namath his knees
Stabler we’ll always hurt
Today like the bengals long snapper
Pulled bicep
I’m like
Really
Cost your team the game
Lidocaine and merrily injections
Couple of percs
Go to work
So soft
No worries. Cooper Rush will step in and save the day. /s
I’m hoping ex Gator Great Will Grier will come off their practice squad and be the starter.
The Texas/Alabama game was outstanding even though the Longhorns were robbed of a Safety by the refs. Still just a one point difference in the final score. Alabama gets the W* with an asterisk. ;o)~
‘Twould be so much better for the psyche and would greatly increase tv audiences if the boos & pelting had been for that sad sack, child sniffing, low IQ POS Biden. Add some eff Biden for sauce.
Wonderful!
Jerry Jones should give Dak….. the Scott Frost deal. Give home Millions to leave the Cowboys.
I’m sure that he would appreciate a 250,000,000 payout…. Ya thats the ticket.
Yeah, watched the giants barely beat Tenn.
They’re going to beat Dallas I’m afraid for the above reasons with or without Dak.
He was God awful.
I think Arkansas will beat Bama and win the West. Probably won’t beat UGA though in the SECCG.
Exactly, the kids today are more addicted to their betting apps than Tik Tok or Instagram
Maybe that’s all changed since you stopped watching.
