Cowboys fall to Eagles

The Dallas Cowboys had another big loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Mike Doocy and Sam Gannon talk about the loss and what's next for the Cowboys.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will have season-ending surgery on his torn hamstring this week, according to owner Jerry Jones.

Jones told 105.3 The Fan that Prescott will have the surgery on Wednesday in New York.

Prescott injured his hamstring in the Cowboys' Week 9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

The Cowboys quarterback saw a specialist on Monday to discuss the decision.

Jerry Jones shuts down calls for curtains at AT&T Stadium

Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was seemingly blinded by the sun through the windows of AT&T Stadium during Sunday's game. Afterwards, Jerry Jones again voiced his opposition to putting up curtains at the stadium.

Prescott signed a four-year, $240 million contract extension right before the start of the season.

It is Prescott's second long-term injury in five seasons for the 31-year-old.

Prescott was out for the final 11 games with a broken ankle in 2020, the most recent season Dallas missed the playoffs.

Backup quarterback Cooper Rush struggled against the Eagles in his first game replacing Prescott this season.

Rush will start on Monday against the Houston Texans, despite some calling for former third-overall pick Trey Lance to get a chance under center.

Rush and Lance combined to throw for just 66 yards against Philadelphia.

The Cowboys are 3-6 on the season, four games back of the division-leading Eagles.
