Mike McCarthy Says Cowboys Planning More Dak Prescott Runs This Year

During his media availability ahead of mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy talked about how much of a benefit it was to have a fully healthy Dak Prescott at the start of the offseason. The quarterback had to gradually increase the intensity of his offseason work last summer because he was coming off a devastating ankle injury that caused him to miss most of the 2020 season.

When asked if the team will incorporate more run plays for Prescott this season as a result, McCarthy said “I hope so.”

“You look at his body, he’s clearly different than he was last year,” McCarthy said.
