While that was long overdue, the Cowboys&#8217; season still hinges on Prescott playing at a Pro Bowl level every week.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\">Of course, that will require Prescott starting under center the rest of the way. So Cowboys fans&#8217; hearts might have skipped a beat on Wednesday when Prescott appeared on the first injury report of the week with a hip ailment.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\">While alarming and should <em>not <\/em>be ignored, Brian Schottenheimer said the injury is &#8220;nothing major&#8221; and that the Cowboys will be cautious with him in practice because of the short week.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-3\">Cowboys QB Dak Prescott dealing with hip injury before Eagles clash<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said Dak Prescott is dealing with a hip injury. \u201cNothing major.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Jon Machota (@jonmachota) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jonmachota\/status\/1991228835178631554?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 19, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">There seemingly is no cause for alarm.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">Schottenheimer was likely getting out in front of it before Prescott appeared on the Wednesday injury report and sparked unnecessary panic. When a starting quarterback shows up on the report without warning or context, it usually elicits a big reaction. Schottenheimer was simply doing some damage control.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">This isn&#8217;t the first time Prescott has been banged up this season. He had his left hand wrapped following the Cowboys&#8217; win over the Commanders in Week 7.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">Having said that, Prescott&#8217;s hip injury will be its own storyline this Sunday against an Eagles defense that&#8217;s been playing out of its mind since trading for edge rusher Jaelan Phillips and getting some pieces back from injury.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\">You already know Jalen Carter would love nothing more than to put Prescott on his backside after he got suspended for the Week 1 matchup for spitting on Prescott as Dallas took the field for the game&#8217;s first possession. That is a petrifying thought by itself, but the Eagles&#8217; pass rush as a collective has come to life this month.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\">Prescott&#8217;s been more mobile this season than Cowboys fans have seen in years. He only has 117 rushing yards to show for it, but he&#8217;s actually shown a willingness to take off and run. That largely has not been the case since his ankle injury in 2020.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\">It&#8217;ll be interesting to see how the injury impacts Prescott&#8217;s mobility, if at all. It stands to reason that Prescott will have to abandon the pocket more than once against Philly. The 32-year-old has some of the best footwork and awareness of any QB, but Cowboys fans will be wincing bigger than usual the first time he gets hit on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dak Prescott popped up on the Dallas Cowboys&#8217; first injury report of the week due to a hip issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":38009,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-38008","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dallas-cowboys"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
