Dak Prescott Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) "is right on track or maybe a little ahead of schedule" in his rehab from a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle last year, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. The head coach was impressed with Prescott's extensive workout last Saturday. A second surgery in December to clean up a previous issue has not slowed Prescott's rehab. Prescott has been at the team's facilities four days a week as part of Phase 1 of the voluntary offseason program. The 27-year-old signed a four-year deal worth $160 million this offseason as the franchise signal-caller. Despite his gruesome injury in 2020, Prescott should perform as a high-end QB1 for fantasy managers this season as long as he doesn't have any setbacks in his rehab.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) is throwing in Texas as he continues his rehab from surgery on a compound fracture and ankle dislocation last year. Prescott is expected to be ready to go for training camp this summer, but the team won't put him in harm's way during spring workouts. The franchise signal-caller signed a four-year, $160 million contract with Dallas over a month ago and is looking good so far in his rehab from a devastating injury. The 27-year-old threw for 1,856 passing yards, nine touchdowns and four interceptions in five games last year before his injury. With plenty of weapons around him, Prescott should be a fringe top-five fantasy QB if he's fully healthy and doesn't encounter any setbacks heading into the 2021 season.

The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott have agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $160 million. Prescott will have a no-trade clause and a no-tag provision, with $126 million in guaranteed money. The move solidifies Prescott's role as the starting quarterback in Dallas, and getting an extension done rather than slapping the franchise tag on Prescott will ensure he's around for offseason workouts, which will matter more this year as Prescott tries to work his way back from an ankle injury that ended his 2020 season early. A healthy Prescott is a top-five fantasy quarterback who will help receivers Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, and -- to a lesser extent -- Michael Gallup have strong 2021 campaigns. The only real question now is how Prescott's ankle is doing, but early indications are that he's ahead in his recovery.
