Former Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who is now holding the same position with the Los Angeles Chargers, recently explained his experiences with Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.
In essence, Moore had nothing but good things to say about Prescott's work ethic.
"I was still getting a lot of reps as the No. 2 at the time. I have a freak deal at training camp in Oxnard, the fourth day: an offensive lineman gets pushed back and falls back on my leg, I break my ankle. So I went back to Dallas and got surgery. Sitting there on the couch, I just remember watching, because Tony was feeling some, kind of, maintenance stuff at that point already with his back."
"So Dak was taking a ton of reps in practice, basically 1s, 2s, and 3s. They played that first game against the Rams in the preseason, the first season in the L.A. Coliseum. And he goes out there and just is dealing. It was incredible. The next week is at Seattle, and that's where Tony's back goes out. Dak rolls out there and deals again. Certainly in the back of your mind as a competitor, you're like, 'Man, there was a chance here, and I missed the boat.' There's a competitive side of you that's challenged by that, but all things happen for a reason. A, we figured out that Dak was really, really good. I'm glad we did."
Prescott is the Cowboys quarterback for now, and based on comments made by team owner and general manager Jerry Jones, he wants him to be for the foreseeable future.
Even though Moore is no longer in Dallas, his respect for Prescott is obvious.
