After a rare interception for quarterback Dak Prescott against Washington, Taylor Heinicke gave it right back on an interception to defensive end Randy Gregory, who is making his first start in a month.
Prescott responded after his turnover with a drive starting in opposing territory, marching down the field and finding wide receiver Amari Cooper for a seven-yard touchdown.

Cooper missed two games in November and had limited snaps in New Orleans but he’s back to form against a Washington team he performs well against. Dallas converted a two-point conversion after the score thanks to running back Ezekiel Elliott and the Cowboys are in the driver seat early with an 11-0 lead on the road.
