ARLINGTON, Texas – Dak Prescott lived another dream on Sunday: starting at quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs with a chance to chase a championship.
Prescott’s rise from third-string fourth-round pick to full-time starter didn’t have a happy ending – at least not this season.
The Cowboys’ 34-31 divisional-round loss to the Green Bay Packers at AT&T Stadium ended a storybook year in Dallas, but even in defeat, Prescott showed again why he held onto the job after Tony Romo returned from a back injury in November.
