Dak Prescott: Plans in Motion to Work with Hayden Hurst on Suicide Prevention

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott plan to team up during the next offseason to work on suicide prevention programs, according to ESPN's Todd Archer.

Following the Cowboys' 40-39 victory over the Falcons in Week 2, Hurst was captured running over to Prescott to praise the QB for speaking about mental health following the suicide of Prescott's brother Jace in April.

Hurst, who runs the Hayden Hurst Foundation with a focus on the mental health of children and adolescents, told Prescott he has "a lot of respect for what you did" after the Cowboys star spoke out about mental illness and his own anxiety and depression following the death of Jace.
