Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is on the receiving end of Tom Brady’s callout
Tom Brady fired an unprovoked shot at Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott after discovering he’d be calling the season opener against the Cleveland Browns. Brady will move into the FOX television booth next season. The three-time MVP is thrilled to be making his color commentary debut with the Cowboys. “Obviously, having the Cowboys on is a huge draw,” Brady stated in a video released to the “FOX Sports: NFL” account. “As America’s Team, that’s going to be a little difficult for me to say all the time, knowing that they were the competition for so long. But in my current capacity, I understand how essential the Cowboys are to this network.”
Brady caught himself taking a jab at Prescott while discussing the game. “They have fantastic tales. “Dak Prescott, let’s see if he can finally come through,” Brady said Michael Strahan. “Did that just slip out?”
The Cowboys have not won the Super Bowl since 1996. Prescott has had much regular-season success during his tenure in Dallas, but he has failed to produce in the postseason. He’s just 2-5 in the playoffs, with one of those wins coming against Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Perhaps Brady is still harboring resentment toward Prescott and the Cowboys from that loss, which triggered the diss.
“Tom Brady took a swipe at Dak Prescott with announcement that his 1st game as FOX analyst will be the Cowboys opener at Cleveland,” David Moore of the Dallas Morning News tweeted. “Should Prescott fire back with who beat Brady in his final game? Brady Roast II.”
Prescott will be 31 next season and coming off a Pro Bowl season. Last season, he threw 4,516 yards, 36 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. There are some concerns regarding Prescott’s long-term prospects in Dallas. However, the Cowboys believe he can guide them to their ultimate aim of winning the Super Bowl.
Absolutely. In an interview with Mad Dog Sports Radio, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones stated that he believes Dak can lead the team to a championship. “He does things the proper way. He is undoubtedly the football team’s leader. He keeps everyone motivated during the offseason. He’s got everyone working out and doing everything it takes to put in the effort to give themselves every chance of winning the championship. It just so happens that the classic oblong football doesn’t always bounce your way. We’ve had some tough breaks and games in the postseason.
“But, you know, we’ve won 12 games in a row over the last three years. I believe that ranks at the top of what teams have accomplished during a three-year span. And, you know, we’re hanging out by the rim. We just have to go up there and grab it, to use a basketball term, and dunk it. We’re hanging around the rim. We just need to get the job done.”
Prescott is eligible to become a free agent next offseason if he does not sign an extension. The parties have publicly discussed the possibility of extending the agreement, but there has been little progress.
