As soon as the Dallas Cowboys walked off the field at NRG Stadium following Thursday’s 14-6 preseason loss to the Houston Texans, marking the fifth winless preseason in franchise history, quarterback Dak Prescott reset the team’s mindset and agenda.
“It’s for real now,” quarterback Prescott told the Cowboys, who are now pointing toward the Sept. 9 season opener against the Carolina Panthers.
Prescott didn’t play in the game but he was intense and focused afterward.
“The first thing that Dak told us when we got in the locker room was ‘it’s for real now’,” rookie receiver Lance Lenoir said.
