Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer dropped a bit of surprising injury news on Wednesday.
In his pre-practice news conference with Cowboys media, Schottenheimer said that quarterback Dak Prescott, who was stellar in Dallas’ win over Las Vegas on Monday night, is dealing with a hip injury and will be appearing on this week’s injury list prior to Sunday’s matchup with the Eagles.
According to Schottenheimer, the injury is no cause for alarm.
