Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys are in big trouble.
On Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback was already having a bad day, and it was only made worse.
At one point during the second half, Dak Prescott had to come out of the game and get checked out on the sideline.
The Cowboys QB suffered a bad injury to his hand.

Minutes would pass, and then it would be revealed that Dak Prescott had been ruled out of the game due to a hamstring and hand injury.

Backup quarterback Cooper Rush would come in to finish the game.
Before his injury, Dak had completed 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and one touchdown.
Before today’s game, Prescott had thrown for 1,845 yards, ten touchdowns, and eight interceptions in seven games.
Dak Prescott Is Not Living Up To His Contract
Prescott and the Cowboys agreed to a $240 million contract extension that will keep the 31-year-old quarterback in Dallas through the 2028 season.
He is not played like a player who deserves to get that much.
ESPN reported that the deal made Prescott the highest-paid player in NFL history.
The Cowboys’ investment in Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who also signed a contract extension just before the regular season, has not paid off.
The team is now in danger of dropping to 3-5.
