NFL News: Dak Prescott Surgery, Bears Fire OC Waldron Amid Struggles

The NFL landscape sees significant changes as Cowboys’ QB Dak Prescott is set for season-ending surgery due to a severe hamstring injury, leaving the team at 3-6. With Prescott sidelined, backups Cooper Rush and Trey Lance will lead a struggling Dallas squad that just suffered a heavy loss to the Eagles. Meanwhile, the Bears have fired offensive coordinator Shane Waldron after a dismal performance against the Patriots, reflecting the team’s downward spiral following three consecutive losses. As criticisms mount, the Bears and Cowboys must navigate their struggling seasons with limited hopes for turnaround.

By the Numbers

  • Dallas Cowboys are currently 3-6 after a 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
  • Waldron’s dismissal comes after the Bears’ offense scored just 3 points against the New England Patriots.

State of Play

  • Cowboys’ coaching staff remains intact despite internal strife and poor performance.
  • Bears have elevated passing game coordinator Thomas Brown to interim offensive coordinator.

What’s Next

The Cowboys will rely heavily on backup quarterbacks as they attempt to salvage a disappointing season, while the Bears’ front office may consider additional changes if performance does not improve. Both teams face critical matchups ahead that could determine coaching futures and playoff hopes.

Bottom Line

The Cowboys must regroup quickly to adjust to Prescott’s absence, while the Bears need to find offensive cohesion under new leadership. Both franchises are at a crossroads, facing potential long-term implications based on decisions made in the coming weeks.

The Dallas Cowboys have signed quarterback Will Grier to their practice squad after Dak Prescott’s season-ending hamstring surgery. Grier, who previously played with the Cowboys during the preseason and was part of their last game against the Raiders, returns to a familiar setting. His signing follows a string of stints with various teams, including the Bengals and Eagles. The Cowboys released rookie defensive back Emani Johnson to make room for Grier. He is currently ineligible to serve as the emergency quarterback due to practice squad restrictions.

By the Numbers

  • Grier threw for 305 yards and two touchdowns in his last preseason game with the Cowboys.
  • Prescott’s surgery will end his season, significantly impacting team dynamics.

State of Play

  • Dak Prescott is officially out for the season after surgery, reshaping the Cowboys’ quarterback strategy.
  • Grier joins Cooper Rush and Trey Lance as the options at quarterback moving forward.

What’s Next

The Cowboys may need to shift the roster to make Grier active for game day, allowing him to serve as a backup or third-string quarterback. Monitoring how Grier integrates into practice will be essential for future games.

Bottom Line

Signing Will Grier adds depth to the Cowboys’ quarterback situation amid Prescott’s injury. This could set the stage for Grier to showcase his skills and potentially earn a more prominent role if needed.

【巨人】山崎伊織、東京ドーム初勝利 足がつり降板も6回途中1失点で2勝目 打っては打率7割5分

JERAセ・リーグ 巨人4―2広島(18日・東京ドーム) 相次ぐピンチを、山崎伊は粘り強くしのいだ。5回までに4度得点圏に走者を背負いながら無失点。6回は3連打で1点を失い、さらに右足がつって降板となったが、5回2/3を7安打1失点5奪三振で2勝目を挙げ、3度目の登板で本拠地初白星をつかんだ。3回先頭では中前安打を放ち、開幕から4打数3安打の打率7割5分と投打で躍動。初の本拠地のお立ち台では「(光景は)投げている時と一緒ですね」とおどけた。 工夫が実った。前回登板、10日のDeNA戦(新潟)では初回に3点を失って初黒星。立ち上がりを克服するため、15球前後だった試合前の投球練習を25球に増やした。初回先頭の大盛には安打を浴びたが、最速147キロを記録して無失点と結果につながった。原監督は「非常にいい投球ができるようになってきた。ホームプレートを広く使えるようになってきているし、ボールそのものの勢いも出てきている」と評価した。 1軍マウンドで勝利を重ねることは右腕にとって恩返しだ。20年6月に右肘じん帯再建術を受け、多くの人に支えられてきた。巨人への入団が決まり、入寮を控えた21年の正月、父・厚志さんからはこう言われた。 「この1年半、2年がその先の5年、10年につながる。今は長い人生の中で我慢するときやで」 リハビリ中の状態は一進一退。リハビリを担当した巨人・水留トレーナーには「本当に試合で投げられるようになるんですか?」と漏らしたこともあった。その度に「状態が落ちる瞬間は絶対にある。一番ダメなのは、そのまま一番下まで落ちること。最終的に上がっていけばいいんだ」と励まされ、乗り越えてきた。 来月で手術から2年。当然、現在の状態に満足はしていない。「(術後)2年を超えたあたりからしっくりくる、と言われている。もっといい球が投げられるようにやっていきたい」。少しずつ本来の姿に近づきながら、恩返しの旅は続いていく。(小島 和之) 1回2死三塁、マクブルームの打球を足を出して止めにいく山崎伊(カメラ・相川 和寛)映像提供:GIANTS TV試合詳細
