Mike McCarthy said the Cowboys will put in more quarterback runs and quarterback movement plays in 2022 after being limited in 2021 with Dak Prescott coming off fractured ankle. He is quicker, more comfortable and moving better in the offseason compared to last year

Prescott missed the final 11 games of 2020 because of a broken ankle, which also limited him throughout last offseason. He suffered a calf strain midway through 2021, although he missed only one game.
