Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was a second late in getting Sunday’s final snap, but he was 48 hours late in apologizing for the classless comments he made in that moment’s wake. Shortly after another sport’s officiating group publicly called for Prescott to be reprimanded for praising the actions of some Dallas fans, the passer took to social media to say he regretted his words from the podium.
Meanwhile, two Cowboys coordinators had meetings with Denver on Tuesday as the annual coaching carousel keeps turning and the ideas for fixing the Dallas staff keep coming. Interestingly, the Seahawks have fired their DC, a former Cowboys standout who later went on to coach in Seattle under Quinn. And one outlet is looking ahead at at how Moore can improve his performance with Prescott should he stay in Dallas. Prescott has equaled another Cowboys passer in a sad category, and one Cowboys icon is starting to lose faith in No. 4. With free agency coming to a slew of Cowboys, difficult decisions lie ahead for the front office; Amari Cooper’s name has even come up for the chunk of change he might save the team should they choose to part ways with the receiver.
