Okay, so apparently, when he was throwing with his right hand...it was closed to the media. So I'm gonna go with that he didn't actually throw with his right, but it's a mind game for Philly.

Maybe the bone is healed or healing, but the surrounding tissue needs to heal. Any evasive surgery is risky.

I mean, I would get if they weren't speaking as though he was on the verge of practicing and/or starting again. Then again, a lot of this is coming from bozo Jerry.

Dak's not going to be 100% till Thanksgiving. Shouldn't even be a topic until a week prior.

I doubt his thumb is GTG. Wasn't it billed as a 3 month injury when he first broke it?

Observe the Prescott haters in their natural habitat. Chronically online, maybe in their mother’s basement, definitely with Cheeto dust on their fingers, stickying their keyboards as they search every crevice of their brain for an insult or quip against the young man.

Finally, one in the pack speaks up.

“It's okay guys. Fear not.

He will magically be better for the Lions game.”

The creature types, hits the forums “post reply” button and chuckles to himself, satisfied with his work. Next, he screeches at his mother to bring him more “chicken tendies” and “honey mussy”.

Sometimes I wonder if anyone actually reads.
In practice, it was mental reps, he wasn’t throwing with his right hand because even though QBs are untouchable, you could hit it again on a defensive player or even an OLman or RB. After practice he threw to receivers who said he had pop on his throws. The media can’t stop there so they ask a stupid question and Dak’s full answer was I always have pop on my throws, meaning when healthy. He followed up with if he didn’t have pop/zip ability, he wouldn’t be throwing.

For anyone who read further, Dak has not been cleared medically to practice yet. He can’t even shoot for McCarthy’s full week of practice until medically cleared. What he’s doing right now is basically rehab, not practice. I’ve said all along, I don’t think there’s any reason for him to play until after the bye unless he is fully healed and can show he’s 100% ready in practice. Win or lose vs Philly, the next two games are ones that can be won with defense and a few points from the offense. Dak WILL be the starter when ready…no question about it, no matter what some scream on this site. I wouldn’t rush him health-wise or chemistry wise. Give him time to show the timing and chemistry is there with Gallup and Noah Brown, guys he threw very little to throughout camp due to injury and the other young receivers Dallas was looking at and hoped would step up (Tolbert, Houston, Fehoko).
