Cowboys news: Prescott likely won’t play before opening night vs Tom Brady and the Bucs

The franchise quarterback may have returned to practice in a limited capacity Monday but the Cowboys are going to continue to exercise caution.

“Dak’s status is limited. We’ll just continue the throwing regimen and keep building up the volume,” McCarthy said. “There’s a good chance he probably won’t play.”

With Prescott not playing against the Texans, he won’t play in the preseason finale against Jacksonville Jaguars on Aug. 29.

It means that Prescott won’t see live action until the Sept. 9 season opener against the Tampa Buccaneers.
