The Dallas Cowboys have been preparing to completely bounce back in 2025.\u00a0 After three straight seasons of 12 regular season wins, Dallas came crashing down in 2024.\u00a0 Injuries and poor play derailed their season last year, however, they may not be out of the woods yet.<\/p>\n

Dallas isn\u2019t buzzing about who\u2019ll attend training camp, but rather who might not be ready. There was a\u00a0surprise<\/a>\u00a0this week for Cowboys fans who thought Dak Prescott was fully healthy:<\/p>\n

Despite reports and footage of him working out with teammates, Cowboys executive vice president and co-owner Stephen Jones threw cold water on the optimism surrounding Prescott\u2019s recovery.<\/p>\n

Jones, speaking to\u00a0The Dallas Morning News<\/em>\u2019 Calvin Watkins, made it clear the team doesn\u2019t plan to rush its $60 million quarterback back into action.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust as you would expect. We\u2019re going to be very cautious and conservative,\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Jones said.\u00a0\u201cBut if you left it up to him, he\u2019d be out here throwing to them, ready to play the Giants on Monday night.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

That comment alone raised some eyebrows and sparked immediate concern. If Dak Prescott were truly at full strength, would there even be a need for such a conservative tone?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
