Cowboys news: Dak Prescott drops defiant truth bomb on breaking records

Dak Prescott, the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, has a history of breaking records throughout his NFL career. However, his primary focus remains on winning games, as he explained to reporter Calvin Watkins. Despite his numerous accolades and records, Prescott emphasized that records have never driven him more than the desire to win crucial games.

He expressed his excitement about breaking these records, stating that it's his turn to do so. Looking ahead, Prescott hopes to lead the team to their best season in the past decade, which would entail reaching the NFC Championship Game and potentially the Super Bowl. With changes made over the offseason, Dallas has the potential to achieve this goal if both offense and defense exceed expectations.

Prescott delivered an outstanding performance in 2025, completing 404 passes for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and only 10 interceptions, along with 53 rushes for 177 yards and two touchdowns. The Cowboys aim to improve upon their 7-9-1 record from the previous season, which they hope to achieve after a two-year hiatus from the playoffs.

They will begin the upcoming season on the road against the New York Giants on September 13 at 8:20 p.m. ET.
