OT: Is Dak Prescott out for the season?

[87Xfer]

I'm watching this on a slight delay, so I'm probably behind the news, but that sure looked like a compound fracture of his ankle/leg.

I'm no Dallas fan, but you hate to see that.

 

[navery12]

Yes

 

[87Xfer]

I was half paying attention in real time, but after seeing the replay, yep. That's one you don't want to see more than once.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Yes. Ankle injury. I hate the Cowboys but have nothing but respect for Dak.

 

[YearoftheHusky]

Yuck.

Oh yeah.....that was nasty. Definite dislocation. Not an ACL, it’s his ankle.

Sometimes those are worse than an ACL. Lots of ligaments in the ankle.

 

[Scoe]

Yeah 100 percent seeing it in real time you wanna believe you didnt see it. I was hoping by some miracle his shoe got twisted.

Looked like a compound fracture involving his ankle. Doesn’t look good

 

[HCCForever]

ESPN reporting Dak will undergo ankle surgery tonight

 

[glastonbury50]

Daks season as well as my fantasy teams season are now over.

 

[Deepster]

Guy in my league has now lost Dak and Saquon. Tough to recover from those.

 

[mauconnfan]

Best to Zak does suck.

 

[DayDayTFS]

Cause that’s really important when the dudes foot is sideways

 

[UConnKev]

 

[jleves]

Is that something he can realistically ever come back from?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Is that something he can realistically ever come back from?

In modern medicine absolutely. Alex Smith, Teddy Bridgewater, Paul George, Gordon Hayward... all returned from compound fractures and/or dislocated ankles

 

[Tampahusky]

He should have had signed for the $35 million/year and guaranteed money...got too greedy

 

[FatHank]

I love Dak and I am a Giants fan. An ankle is not supposed to do what it did. I have no idea how he was not screaming in pain. I wish hos a successful recovery.

 

[huskiesNhoos]

really bad night for me to actually watch an NFL game...terrible to see and really gotta feel for the guy. hope he's able to come back like some on the list mentioned earlier

evil jerry jones is patting himself on the back. just saved a boat load of money

 

[uconnever]

not sure, but I thought in the nfl, you don’t play you don’t get paid.

 

[UCfor3]

This is why players hold out. Brutal sport. This injury cost him hundreds of millions.

 

[navery12]

Yup, and there's still multiple people in this thread calling him greedy for wanting to get paid...

 

[UCfor3]

Lol. Those same people would he horrible negotiators for themselves in real life situations. Know your value and hold your ground. Life will swallow you up if you allow it to. Jerry Jones is happy tonight. Emmitt Smith and Zeke got paid cuz they threatened to not play. Dak played nice and got screwed. Twist it any way you want. This is what happened.

Exactly, people can try and spin it any way they want but Dak asked for fair value and the Cowboys knew they had no reason to negotiate in good faith because of the franchise tag
