Dallas Cowboys\u00a0star quarterback Dak Prescott spent some of his time over the weekend away from the gym as he tries to improve on his health following a\u00a0hamstring injury\u00a0that ended his 2024 campaign prematurely.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

On Sunday, the former Mississippi State Bulldogs star signal-caller was spotted enjoying the action at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, where the 2025 W\u00fcrth 400 presented by LIQUI MOLY NASCAR Cup Series race was staged.<\/p>\n

At one point, the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback was seen playing catch on the pit road, which NASCAR on FOX posted on its official Instagram account.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Prescott played in only eight games in 2024, passing for a total of 1,978 yards and 11 touchdowns with eight interceptions.<\/p>\n

It was not his best season in his NFL career so far, which was frustrating, especially since he just came off arguably his most impressive campaign in the league. In 2023, Prescott threw for 4,517 passing yards and 36 touchdowns with nine interceptions while earning his third Pro Bowl nod.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

As for the race itself, Joey Logano topped the field while Ross Chastain and Ryan Blaney finished second and third, respectively, to round out the podium.<\/p>\n

Prescott drew plenty and mixed reactions with his pit road activity on Sunday. Here are some of what fans have written in the comments section:<\/p>\n
