Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott did not participate in any snaps during the preseason, which included three games. This decision comes as he looks ahead to the 2026 season, where he will benefit from a strengthened receiving corps.

CeeDee Lamb has been a key target for Prescott since 2020, and the recent addition of George Pickens in the 2025 offseason is expected to enhance their offensive capabilities. Last season, Prescott threw for 4,552 yards and completed 30 touchdown passes from 600 attempts, marking the second-highest passing yard total of his career.

The Cowboys are shifting towards a more balanced offensive strategy this season, which may result in fewer touchdown passes for Prescott. Furthermore, the implementation of a new defensive scheme under coordinator Christian Parker could help the offense avoid frequent catch-up scenarios. With Lamb and Pickens as his primary receiving duo, Prescott has the potential to reach or surpass 4,000 passing yards in the upcoming season.
