Cowboys' QB Dak Prescott is healthy entering 2025

Dallas struggled last season in large part due to Dak Prescott suffering an injury.

Prescott only played in eight games last season but the quarterback feels healthy going into 2025.

"Me playing my best, I'm mobile," Prescott said, via NFL.com. "Whether it's actually running past the line of scrimmage or just scrambling making plays happen with my arm, so that's vital for me, that's a big part of this. I've been running more, obviously you've got to when you're rehabbing a hamstring, it's about just staying on that trend of just getting better, staying mobile but doing it while feeling healthy."

Prescott will return as the Cowboys' starting quarterback while Dallas also traded for George Pickens this offseason to bolster their offense.

Dallas enters the 2025 NFL season with the third-best odds of winning the NFC East at +700, which implies a 12.5% chance.
