Prescott is currently dealing with a calf injury, but he’s been able to practice to start the week. He told reporters that he felt like he could suit up vs. the Vikings, but he added that it “wasn’t just his decision.” He was able to rest up during the team’s Week 7 bye, and he said that he would undoubtedly be able to play if it was a playoff contest. However, the Cowboys own a sizable lead in the NFC East standings, so they have the luxury of resting Prescott if they want to.
Prescott has led the Cowboys to a 5-1 record through their first six games, and their offense has been the main reason for their success.
