Dak Prescott hasn’t thrown a pass in a game since last October — a combination of a broken ankle ending the 2020 campaign and a shoulder injury that wiped out this preseason.
Ezekiel Elliott, meanwhile, is coming off his least productive season as a Dallas Cowboy as some wonder if he has lost his effectiveness after carrying a heavy workload through five professional seasons and a couple years at Ohio State.
Zeke didn’t take a snap this preseason either because the Cowboys are trying to preserve whatever they can out of him.
