ARLINGTON — The Cowboys will know more about the future of quarterback Dak Prescott on Monday.
He’s scheduled to visit a doctor in the New York area on Monday to look at his torn right hamstring. Prescott said he has problems sitting down on his leg.
Prescott said if the doctor recommends surgery, it will happen in the New York area. The recovery time would take three-to-four months and end his 2024 season.

If Prescott declines surgery, he could miss six-to-eight weeks.
“I think it’s just give a full view of it what they think he’s capable of doing sooner than later if at all,” Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said. “If not, should he have the surgery or not, that’s what we’re trying to get our hands on.”

Prescott was injured in the Week 9 loss to Atlanta and after it was determined he tore the ligament off the bone, the team was on the verge of placing him on injured reserve.
Club officials held off as Prescott sought another opinion on his right leg.
Without Prescott, the Cowboys seemed compromised on offense.
“But anybody that loses their top quarterback has some adjustments to make and they’re usually adjusting uphill,” team owner and general manager Jerry Jones said. “I thought that basically, we looked better tonight without Dak. Thought we looked better on offense than we’ve looked without Dak. I’ve seen Cooper [Rush] play better than we played tonight. Philadelphia’s got a lot to do with that. That’s what it is.”
