Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will undergo an MRI on Monday to check how serious his hamstring injury is after he had to leave the game in Atlanta on Sunday.
Prescott mentioned he “felt a pull, something I’ve never felt,” but he also said, “it’ll take a lot for me to not be out there” when the Cowboys play against Philadelphia next Sunday.
“It was tough to walk on it,” Prescott said. “I know how much we needed this one. I wanted to just get out there and compete, get out there and fight.”
At the end of the third quarter, Prescott also seemed to hurt his right hand. The Cowboys were behind 21-13 as they entered the fourth quarter and ended up losing 27-21.
He completed 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and one touchdown, without any interceptions, breaking a streak of three games with two interceptions. Prescott also ran three times for 30 yards.
Cooper Rush took over for Prescott as the Cowboys (3-5) suffered their third consecutive loss.
