Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott limited in practice after new cleats bother ankle

FRISCO, Texas -- For Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, it's gotta be the shoes.

Prescott was a limited participant in Thursday's practice because of a new pair of cleats that made his surgically-repaired right ankle feel "uncomfortable."

"I promise you I'm great," Prescott said, adding, "Just being very, very precautious. Switched shoes today, probably wasn't the best idea. We're good to go. Promise that."

The Cowboys have a lighter workout on Friday "but come Saturday, yeah, we'll be rolling," he said. Dallas' season kicks off Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at AT&T Stadium.
