BREAKING NEWS **********The Official Dak Prescott Injury Thread **********

[Mk2_Cowboys]

They said compound fracture so im thinking he’ll be back next season

Maybe maybe not . Could be next year or longer . If they did surgery right away then that’s not a good sign at all .

Oddly enough I just watched 60 Minutes and they had a report on a man who survived a bear attack. He said among other things his "ankle was dangling off his legs held on by some tendons"
This man is very active, hunts, dirt bikes, etc
It took him "several months" and he is fine now

I'll just say yikes and leave this here....hopefully there's no damage to the nerves and blood supply, smh.

What is the prognosis of an ankle dislocation?

While the goal for every injury is to return the patient to their pre-injury level of function, patients who have dislocated their ankle may not necessarily be able to achieve that goal.

When the ankle dislocates, blood supply to the cartilage that lines the bone within the joint may be damaged, eventually leading to arthritis (arthro=joint + it is=inflammation). As well, if the bones do not perfectly align after injury, the risk of arthritis in the future increases.

Arthritis of the joint may cause pain and stiffness. Loss of range of motion in the ankle can alter gait, the motion of walking, and subsequently affect other parts of the skeleton including the hips and back.

He won't be as mobile most likely.

Much like Aikman when he first his back, Romo when he had back surgery, and most every quarterback when the injuries take their toll.

But he'll still be able to move in the pocket and throw the same.

The tackle looked similar to how seattle broke Allen Hurns' ankle. Beasely was almost injured in the same game by a similar tackle. I dont think its a dirty play but perhaps just bad technique. I suspect the league will begin to take a look at it.

I don’t mean to call anyone dirty. It was just the pulling back with the legs whipping into Dak’s legs. It had the form of a horse collar without the horse collar grab.

Should be an Auto ban for anyone who celebrates this injury

Exactly. Can we please just care about the human being that is Dak Prescott and not allow/engage any agenda talks.

They did the same exact thing to pollard the play before.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Im his biggest critic but this sucks. We are a better team with him on the Field



get well soon 4

Class act my dude

It’s a sign that the bone broke through the skin. Had to do it before leg got infected like Alex smith

[Jchilly]

he will be back to start next year!

 

[GroundZero1970]

I feel terrible. I have been critical of Prescott but that man has the heart of a warrior. I actually cried for him. I hope he heals quickly and gets back to normal. Get better Dak

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I’m done with this site. I told one of the posters he was scum for his comments about Dak’s injury and it was deleted. I was given a 24 hour ban last week for no reason. This site has become pathetic because of some of the posters AND some of the mods. I’m sure this will be deleted as well but I couldn’t give a **** less. I’m done here.

Thanks for taking the time to let everyone know you’re done with this site.

screw this pony show. him and his acting.

 

[SDCowboy]

I can't stand Stephan A, but that was a good video by him.

 

[Sarek]

If we're going to play the guessing game. Dak is out about 16 to 20 months. Signs a deal with another team and is the starting QB there for 2 - 4 years. Where it goes from there, only that next job performance will tell. By the looks of it, it's going to be a long road back.

 

[Zekeats]

I can't stand Stephan A, but that was a good video by him.

It's all an act. Him and Skip, 100% act which is why they make a video. Did you see Mahomes make a video? Show business.

 

[Ozone22]

J Garrett with a classy move walking over next to McCarthy. Wishing Dak a healthy recovery.

 

[Section446]

Team will have the same record with Dalton as they would have with Dak.

 

[Pantone282C]

We need to sign him long-term after the season. He has more than proven he is our franchise QB until 2030 and likely beyond

He was killing it!

 

[Pantone282C]

When I initially saw his ankle, I thought it may just be dislocated. Praying to God that he doesn't have a similar injury as Gordon Hayward had for you basketball fans who know the reference. Get well soon Dak!

It looked bad!
