As the Dallas Cowboys prepare for their final two games of the 2025 season, quarterback Dak Prescott is determined to make an impact despite the team’s disappointing performance. The Cowboys, currently at a record of 6-8-1, have officially missed the playoffs, but Prescott is focused on the future. “We won’t be back here in this spot,” he stated on Tuesday ahead of their Christmas match against the Washington Commanders.
Prescott acknowledged the challenges that come with each season, emphasizing the importance of controlling what one can. He expressed a commitment to not only improve his own performance but to also influence those around him. “I’m going to do my damnedest… Maybe there’s a little bit more that I can do,” he said. His approach includes engaging with the front office and providing input that could benefit the team.
The quarterback has no intention of sitting out the remaining games, quickly dismissing the idea when a reporter raised the possibility. “Absolutely not, especially on Christmas,” he declared. Prescott’s enthusiasm for playing on this significant day is palpable, as he noted the importance of being on the field rather than away from his family. “I’m not trying to be away from my family if I’m not going to get to play this game,” he added.
With the season nearing its end, Prescott has already achieved personal success by being named to the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career. He has thrown for 4,175 yards, with 28 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. While he takes pride in this accolade, he emphasizes that it is a collective achievement. “My success, that accolade is 100% shared with each and every one of those guys in there,” he remarked, highlighting the camaraderie within the locker room.
As the Cowboys prepare for their Christmas showdown, Prescott’s commitment to leading the team is clear. He aims to finish the season strong, not just for himself but for his teammates and the fans. The upcoming games serve as an opportunity to set a positive tone for the next season, reinforcing Prescott’s determination to not repeat the struggles faced in 2025.
