Rapoport Update On Dak’s Rehab

[john van brocklin]

Nothing groundbreaking, but a nice update on the rehab.

“The star quarterback has been attacking rehab to ensure that future is bright. And he's making great progress.

NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Prescott is walking, working on an anti-gravity treadmill and in a HydroWorx pool, which takes pressure off his ankle but allows him to get in shape.

"Based on the work he's put in, what they think, he's going to come back better than ever," Rapoport said Saturday on NFL GameDay Morning.”

Great news!
Thanks for posting

I wish they called it a “weight bearing treadmill” instead of an “anti gravity treadmill.” The treadmill doesn’t disrupt the earth’s gravitational pull; it takes on varying levels of the runner’s body weight. HUGE difference.

"recovery is going good, dak expect that it will take 40 million for his gimp leg to come back to 50 percent report, Rapport"

The defense played better when they simplified the defense.

Great. Now lets him get him that 40M he needs to feel respected and start looking for warm bodies to fill all the holes on defense.

Dak Prescott back yard is a football field. I do not need any news on his rehab. He will be ready for a Super Bowl run. The question is for what team?

Not this one. He's going to need more than Zeke, 3 #1 Wrs, and 3 pro bowlers on the OL. He's going to need a defense. We can't afford one at the moment.

Good. Too bad his career is getting ready to get wasted like Romo’s because of bad defenses, bad coaching, and most of all, our terrible, horrible, no good, very bad GM, Jerry.

If you really feel that to the core, why aggravate yourself? Life is too short.

This is where I am truly grateful Dak made 31.4M last year.

He has the money to have professionals around 24x7 to push his rehab forward in the best possible way.
He's not relying on 2 times a week trips to a facility.

I'd be shocked if he wasn't ready to go by OTAs.

Yes evidently having a backyard football field is all you need for a Super Bowl run

It shows passion for the game which I think we can all agree is a great thing.

The defense played better when they simplified the defense.

And we were playing super crappy awful teams.

 

[CATCH17]

Sweet.. Can’t wait for more mediocrity.

 

[Jake]

they wouldn’t have to do this if they hired coaches and coordinators that don’t suck arse. Imagine if we had McVay, Reich, Reid, or Lafleur. Bad coaching has plagued this team since 1995.

The day I heard Barry Switzer was replacing Jimmy my opinion of Jerry began to change. It was an absurd hire. No other NFL team would've ever hired him.

That Switzer has a SB ring is a testament to how good the Cowboys were then. A quarter of a century later it is obvious who was the architect of that team, and it wasn't Jerry.

 

[Ranched]

Looking forward seeing Dak under center again. The team undoubtedly clicks w/him.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Sweet.. Can’t wait for more mediocrity.

It's called "Dak Friendly" where 8-8 is a Superbowl season!

Geez, when that injury happened, it looked awful. Although I have no medical training what-so-ever, it will surprise me if he's 100% by OTA's. I sure hope I'm surprised!

you give him 40M you are relegated to shopping at the local morgue

A couple things.
1. I def do not mean ready to take hits! I mean ready to throw passes versus air. I seriously doubt he takes a single nudge until the final pre-season game and that might be a single Live series.
2. He's already putting some weight on it although it is water assisted carrying of that weight.

Dak is a hard charger and that helps in rehab.
When he hobbled his way into the Stadium to see his old Miss St head coach Mullen I was pretty confident he'd be back sooner rather than later.

OTA's can't begin until April 19th at the earliest so we have 3 months.
But yea that might be tight.

I hear those guys are dying to play defense
