Here is the article from BTB earlier in the week. Dak is working on one of his weaknesses since his accuracy is lower on deep routes. Dallas is wanting him to improve on the deep ball. Glad they are doing this as this will help the running game.
A lot in this recap. Worth the read:
Rough day for the tight ends, Dorance Armstrong continues to make plays, DT Antwaun Woods giving Travis Frederick trouble, and much more.

Dak Prescott working on accuracy, deep ball - Clarence Hill, Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Scott Linehan said part of the focus for the rest of camp is on improving quarterback
Dak Prescott’s accuracy and the deep ball, and Hill looks at how the
Cowboys are trying to do that.
The Cowboys are placing an increased focus on the deep ball and getting Prescott on the same page with his revamped receivers corps.
There were struggles early in camp because of a lack of chemistry. The Cowboys have more speed at receiver than they have had in years and the quarterbacks were underthrowing them.
“They have gotten better,” Linehan said. “That is why we are practicing them. We are practicing more the timing of our route tree. We got new players, young players. Dak has got to get that extra work with those guys. The whole idea with the deep ball is we want to stretch and get it down the field. That is the way the whole 9 ball concept works. It is not always the bull’s-eye shot or the back shoulder throw. Those are changeups or things you do when people defend and stay on top of receivers.
