Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott declared himself a “full go” for training camp and fully recovered from season-ending surgery in November to repair a partial avulsion of the hamstring tendon.
Prescott, 31, did not play in the final nine games last season and has yet to be given the green light from the Cowboys’ medical staff, he said. Dallas was 3-5 at the time of his injury and finished the 2024 season 7-10.
“I’m healthy as I’ll be,” Prescott told reporters at his youth camp in Southlake, Texas, on Tuesday. “I’ll be full go for camp. I’m healthy. Yeah, I think soon here I’ll probably get the official sign off from doc, but I’m healthy.”
Dallas reports to training camp in Oxnard, Calif., on July 20, where the Cowboys begin to assimilate to new head coach Brian Schottenheimer’s system and the fresh faces acquired to fill in around Prescott.
The Cowboys acquired wide receiver George Pickens from the Pittsburgh Steelers, drafted running back Jaydon Blue, signed veteran running backs Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders and shuffled the offensive line.
Perennial Pro Bowl guard Zack Martin retired and the Cowboys invested their first-round pick in Alabama right guard Tyler Booker. There’s pressure on the shoulders of left tackle Tyler Guyton, a first-round pick in 2024, to help prevent Prescott from missing time with injury for the third time in six seasons.
After the quarterback pulled his new skill-position cast together in Georgia he said he’s “excited as hell” to be the one tasked with keeping all of them happily involved.
“We’ve just got to continue to grow that and continue to make sure that that’s trending the right way,” he said.
