Prescott kept insisting he was fine and said He threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns in the 20-16 win against the Vikings. 10, 1989, a 28-0 loss to the Prescott will meet with the Cowboys' hand specialist on Monday but, according to multiple sources, he will have a pin and plate inserted into the area to stabilize the joint.

Wanting to be able to respond and not necessarily having that opportunity for several weeks.

Dak Prescott to Miss 'Several Weeks' Due to Hand Surgery ... (Sports Illustrated)

It seems the hand injury Prescott suffered during Sunday Night Football will sideline him for the foreseeable future.

A concerned Prescott looked on as the Cowboys’ medical staff examined his hand shortly after he jogged off the field. Prescott’s night went from bad to worse after the QB took hits to his throwing hand twice during a drive in the fourth quarter, eventually exiting the game with 6:02 remaining on the clock. Jones told reporters Prescott will undergo surgery to repair an injury behind the joint above the thumb on his right hand.

Cowboys' Dak Prescott will undergo surgery for hand injury (The Washington Post)

The quarterback will be sidelined "for several weeks," Dallas owner Jerry Jones said after Sunday night's season-opening loss at home to the Buccaneers.

And I’ll give my best, and I’m sure I’ll come out of this thing better.” Now, as the Cowboys attempt to fix all that went wrong Sunday night, they’ll have to do so without their two-time Pro Bowl quarterback. So this was a really tough night for the Cowboys and a really surprising night…. “The plan is to see him, surgery tomorrow and let me know once they get in there [and] they see everything. Prescott, who had a brace on his right hand after the game, said he initially thought the injury was less severe. Prescott threw an interception and completed only 14 of 29 passes for 134 yards before exiting the game.

Se espera que Gallup esté de regreso con el equipo de Dallas en el tercer partido de la temporada, el lunes 26 de septiembre cuando los Cowboys visiten a los Giants de Nueva York. Sin Cooper y Gallup, el único receptor confiable de Dallas en el partido del domingo fue CeeDee Lamb, pero el jugador que está en su tercera temporada poco pudo hacer ante la defensiva de los Buccaneers. La partida de Copper a los Browns de Cleveland se dio en medio de una ruptura y cirugía de ligamentos de rodilla que sufrió el otro receptor experimentado de los Cowboys, Michael Gallup. “Sin receptores no hay paraíso” Ese bien podría ser el título de la novela de 17 capítulos que el domingo inició para los Cowboys de Dallas con la derrota ante los Buccaneers. El próximo partido de los Cowboys será el domingo cuando reciban en AT&T Stadium a los actuales campeones de la Conferencia Americana, Bengals de Cincinnati. Cooper Rush se hizo cargo de la ofensiva de Dallas hasta que concluyó el encuentro.

Jerry Jones says Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott needs thumb ... (USA TODAY)

X-rays revealed Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott sustained a fracture in the joint above his right thumb.

Prescott said he’ll do all he can to prepare Rush and teammates for that game and any others he misses. “I’m obviously going to miss some time, not be there for my team,” Prescott said. The ankle did not keep him from the opener, but a new injury will sideline him for roughly a month, the Cowboys expect. Instead, the training staff quickly guided Prescott to the locker room for X-rays. So he jogged to the sideline to ask the training staff to “yank” it back into place. Prescott will undergo surgery on Monday, he confirmed, for what Jones described as a fracture to the joint above his right thumb.

Dak Prescott Injured in Cowboys Loss to Buccaneers (The New York Times)

A convincing loss to Tom Brady and the Buccaneers was compounded by an injury to Dak Prescott that will require surgery.

As for the catastrophic performance, he had a relatively sunny take: “Offensively, our rhythm was up and down.” The Cowboys now will turn to their backup quarterback, Cooper Rush. East all won — yes, even the Giants! After a dull first half, which ended with Tampa ahead, 4-1, in field goals (and 12-3 in points), Brady threw first his touchdown pass of the year in the third quarter. That provided the final margin of victory. The next play I realized I couldn’t grip the ball.” At the very least, Dallas looked like the favorite to win the N.F.C. [said after the game](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-MofaWyQ_U). Without Cooper as an option, Prescott struggled even before his injury, finishing 14 of 29 for 134 yards and an interception. Worse, Prescott fractured his thumb while he was throwing a fourth-quarter pass. There was some concern over the decision to trade away the receiver Amari Cooper. But Dallas had the most potent offense in the league last season, scoring 530 points, and quarterback Dak Prescott had thrown for 37 touchdowns.

What QB Dak Prescott's imminent surgery means for Jerry Jones ... (USA TODAY)

Jerry Jones expects Dak Prescott will miss "several" weeks, but ESPN reported his recovery timeline is expected to be more in the 6- to 8-week range.

Schultz similarly asked reporters for clarification before reiterating how he and his teammates needed to rise to the occasion. "Obviously it isn’t what you want to hear," Prescott said. "Candidly, we have to look at it and I don’t see this in the horizon, but I’m going to use it as an example, of how I felt when Tony Romo went down against Seattle," Jones said. He jogged to the sideline and asked trainers to "yank" it back into place. "I didn’t know that, but now I do," he said. "Cooper has been slinging since I got here," said Schultz, a Dallas 2018 fourth-rounder now playing on the franchise tag. Rush quarterbacked the team to a win that night, completing 30-of-47 passes for 422 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. “The main thing about him as backup quarterback is we didn’t have to alter the offense to have him. The Cowboys host the Bengals next week, then travel to the Giants for Monday Night Football, then host Washington and then travel to the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. Jones and Prescott each spoke to the media about the injury. Cooper Rush finished the game Sunday night, completing 7-of-13 attempts for 64 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions. 1 receiver CeeDee Lamb did not yet look the role, he and Prescott connecting on just 2-of-11 targets for 29 yards.

Who will Cowboys tab to fill in for Dak Prescott? Eight potential QBs ... (NFL.com)

With Dak Prescott expected to miss several weeks with a fractured thumb, Eric Edholm identifies eight potential QBs who could fill in for the Cowboys' ...

When the Panthers were short on QB options last season, they brought Newton back to the team -- and he at least [delivered a few moments](https://www.nfl.com/news/cam-newton-runs-for-td-on-first-snap-vs-cardinals-throws-td-on-second-play-i-m-b). In a tough game at Philadelphia, DiNucci was sacked four times and lost two fumbles in a [23-9 loss](https://www.nfl.com/games/cowboys-at-eagles-2020-reg-8), completing 21 of 40 passes for 180 yards. We file this possibility in a similar fashion to the Garoppolo one. How much capital would the Cowboys part with in exchange for a few starts? But Jones’ level of desperation can’t be overlooked -- and the owner might not be able to resist green-lighting a splashy move. The Cowboys trailed the Vikings for most of that game, until Rush led an eight-play, 75-yard drive in the final minute -- sealed with a game-winning TD pass to [Amari Cooper](https://www.nfl.com/players/amari-cooper/) -- to give Dallas the road win. The Cowboys surely got a good look at Johnson during joint practices and in their preseason matchup, during which he completed 16 of 23 passes for 172 yards and two scores. In four games (one start) last season for the Jets and Ravens, he completed a combined 57 of 85 passes (67.1%) for 638 yards, five TDs and two interceptions, taking only three sacks in that span. That, plus his ability to pick up a first down or two with his legs, could be attractive for the Cowboys, who are shorthanded in the blocking department. [clearly](https://www.si.com/college/westvirginia/mountaineers-in-the-pros/will-grier-impressing-at-cowboys-training-camp)” taken a step forward. Rush ended up replacing Prescott for the final five minutes of the Cowboys' [19-3 Week 1 loss](https://www.nfl.com/games/buccaneers-at-cowboys-2022-reg-1) to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The obvious, if uninspired choice, is to keep Rush in the starting role, which wouldn’t require any roster moves (even if the Cowboys would need to promote a backup).
