In a development that electrified the Dallas Cowboys fanbase, quarterback Dak Prescott has broken his silence on the status of his injury just days before training camp opens. Prescott, who had remained mostly tight-lipped about offseason concerns regarding his shoulder and lower-body issues, delivered a crucial update that not only calmed nerves but also reignited championship hopes across Cowboys Nation.
Appearing in front of reporters at the Star in Frisco, Prescott walked to the podium without a brace, limp, or any visible limitation—something that immediately captured the attention of fans and media alike. His body language was confident, his tone assured. Then came the moment everyone had waited for.
“I’m 100 percent. No restrictions. If camp started today, I’d be a full-go,” Prescott declared. “This is the strongest and healthiest I’ve felt going into a season in a long time.”
That single sentence sent shockwaves through Cowboys circles. The quarterback’s health had been a major talking point following a season in which he played through various nagging injuries, including a strained shoulder and a lingering ankle flare-up. While those issues never kept him out for an extended stretch, the concern was that they might affect his performance come playoff time—something that ultimately showed in Dallas’ underwhelming finish.
Now, with Prescott claiming full health, optimism is back in full force. Sources within the organization confirm he has been participating in full-speed drills with private coaches and trainers since early June. Not only is he throwing with velocity, but he’s reportedly added muscle and improved flexibility in both legs, allowing him to plant and drive with more power.
His teammates are taking notice. Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said, “You can tell Dak’s locked in—he’s dialed, sharper than ever. It’s scary how good he looks already.”
Despite high expectations every year, the Cowboys have consistently fallen short in the postseason. However, a fully healthy and motivated Dak Prescott could change that narrative in 2025. Analysts agree: if Prescott stays upright and in top form, Dallas has the roster to contend with anyone in the NFC.
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy echoed those thoughts. “We have a great quarterback, a great leader. He’s mentally and physically where we need him to be. This year’s going to be different.”
With all eyes on Oxnard for training camp, Dak’s return to full health might be the X-factor the Cowboys desperately need. Whether this newfound momentum can carry them deep into January—and possibly beyond—remains the most thrilling question in all of Cowboys football.
