Dak Prescott's Mixed Feelings on Coach McCarthy's Exit

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has mixed feelings about coach Mike McCarthy's departure. He praised McCarthy as a "great dude" and felt blessed to play under him. However, Prescott acknowledged the business side of the NFL when discussing McCarthy's exit. Last year, Prescott had his most efficient season with a career-high passer rating of 105. 9 and led the league with 36 touchdown passes. The Cowboys posted a 12-5 record under McCarthy's leadership, earning him the 2023 NFL MVP runner-up title. Unfortunately, injuries played a significant role in the team's 7-10 finish in 2024.

Prescott will now play under his third head coach in 10 seasons with the Cowboys. This change comes after a season filled with injuries that impacted key players like Prescott himself, DaRon Bland, and Micah Parsons. Despite the challenging season, Prescott maintains a professional perspective on the business aspect of the NFL.
