Dak Prescott is a modern-day Dallas Cowboys icon, and the Mississippi State University product has passionately represented America’s team throughout his NFL career. Originally drafted as a backup, Prescott quickly took over as Tony Romo’s franchise quarterback and won the 2016 Offensive Rookie of the Year Award.

Dak Prescott has enjoyed a solid NFL career to this point
Dak Prescott may not have led Jerry Jones’ teams to a Super Bowl or great postseason success, but it’s unfair to say the former fourth-round pick hasn’t had a solid career in the NFL.

Prescott’s accolades include Offensive Rookie of the Year, second-team All-Pro selection, three Pro Bowl selections, 2023 NFL Passing Touchdown Leader Award, and career statistics of 29,459 passing yards, TDs, and more.
He has 202 knockdowns and 74 interceptions. Additionally, Prescott holds his NFL records for highest passer rating by a rookie and highest completion percentage by a rookie. He also holds the record for most wins in a season by a rookie quarterback, with 13 wins in the 2016 season.
