Dak Prescott had indicated his target plan for this week.
Afterward in the postgame locker room, Cowboys players spoke with a thinly veiled indication that Prescott would return.
The 1-4 Lions boast the NFL’s worst overall defense, allowing a league-high 34 points and 428.6 yards per game. Their passing defense is seventh-worst, allowing 261 yards per game. That reintroduction could help Prescott, who had an uncharacteristically poor performance in the opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before his injury, establish rhythm with teammates who have returned from injury since he exited. Dallas has shored up its offensive line and established groove in the running game in recent weeks.
Recent throwing sessions jumpstarted that process. Saturday, Prescott went through 7-on-7 work including third-down and red-zone drills. Before kickoff at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday, he cycled through a roughly 50-throw script and said he felt “fantastic.”
