Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is expected to miss multiple weeks with a hamstring injury, according to new reports.

Prescott injured his hamstring during Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

The NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero says Prescott's injury "is not looking like a short-term injury."

Prescott is expected to get a second opinion, according to Rapoport.

Cooper Rush replaced Prescott on Sunday after his injury early in the fourth quarter.

Cowboys can't recover from failed fake punt in 3rd straight loss as Prescott faces hamstring injury

Trailing by only four points early in the second half, the Dallas Cowboys failed on a huge gamble — a fake punt from their 38.

Rush led the Cowboys to a 4-1 record in 2022 after Prescott was injured.

Trey Lance is expected to be the team's backup quarterback.

The Cowboys are currently 3-5 on the season.

They face the Philadelphia Eagles (6-2) on Sunday.
