The Cowboys quarterback can\u2019t meaningfully impact his team\u2019s performance as he\u00a0recovers from season-ending surgery to repair his hamstring tear. That bothers him.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cYour coach seems like he\u2019s playing on his last contract and [I\u2019m] almost feeling helpless like I can\u2019t help him in this situation, especially a guy you believe in so much and you believe in being your head coach,\u201d Prescott told Yahoo Sports during a Tuesday afternoon Zoom call. \u201cControl what I can control, help and support Mike to every extent that I can.\u201d<\/p>\n

In nine seasons with the Cowboys, Prescott has played for two head coaches. He leans on his experience watching Jason Garrett coach the final year of his deal in 2019 to manage this season. Prescott said he was glad to hear team owner and general manager\u00a0Jerry Jones say last week that it\u2019s \u201cnot crazy\u201d\u00a0to consider McCarthy returning for a sixth season and beyond.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe in him wholeheartedly,\u201d Prescott said, speaking in partnership with DICK\u2019S Sporting Goods. \u201cI don\u2019t want to necessarily get into the nuts and the screws of it all obviously, but I think he definitely deserves a chance \u2014 another contract and a chance to coach this team amongst more influence. \u2018On his terms\u2019 may be a good way to say it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
