Steve and Dr. Cole discuss the recovery potential for QB Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys. Prescott suffered a? compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle in the October 11th matchup with the Giants.
Prescott?s timeline for recovery was set at four months, a mark Cowboys VP Stephen Jones said he?s on pace to challenge. The team hopes he?ll be ready for offseason work ahead of a 2021 season, in which the Cowboys must decide whether and through what means to re-sign him.
