Dak Prescott should be feeling the love from the football world.
The Cowboys quarterback exited Sunday's NFC East matchup vs. the Giants with a horrific ankle injury, being carted off in the third quarter after a designed quarterback run. The Cowboys announced that Prescott would be transferred to a local hospital to undergo further evaluation. ESPN's Adam Schefter later reported that Prescott would undergo surgery Sunday night.
Prescott was overcome with emotion while on the cart, eventually raising his fist, causing those in attendance to erupt.
Dak Prescott raised his fist as he was carted off of the field today.
