Dak Prescott Breaks Cowboys Franchise Record Previously Held by Tony Romo

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott shattered a franchise record with his incredible performance in a crucial Week 1 game against the Washington Commanders. Prescott completed 26 of 31 passes for 279 yards and four touchdowns, leading his team to a hard-fought 37-20 victory. This performance vaulted him past the previous record holder, Tony Romo, who held the mark with 248 career touchdown passes.

Prescott's 249 touchdown passes in his career now make him the all-time leader in this category for the Cowboys. With 15 games remaining in the season, Prescott's record-setting performance is a testament to his rising status as one of the league's premier quarterbacks. Although not currently in Super Bowl contention, a high-powered offense led by Prescott could elevate Dallas's status in the coming weeks.

Next up for Prescott and the Cowboys is a matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Sept. 27, as they aim to secure a 2-1 record heading into the postseason.
