Dak Prescott Nears Romo's Passing Record

Dak Prescott is closing in on Tony Romo's 34,183 passing yards, currently trailing by only 160 yards. Teammate CeeDee Lamb anticipates the record will fall in the first quarter of the upcoming Sunday game. Prescott himself, reflecting on his rookie year's success, feels humbled and grateful for the opportunity to achieve such a milestone while remaining healthy and performing at a high level.

Prescott views this potential record not as an individual achievement but as a shared success with all the receivers and tight ends he has played with, including CeeDee Lamb, Amari Cooper, and Jason Witten. He emphasizes that his continued strong play is a result of great teammates and a commitment to a high standard. He takes particular pride in his career 67.1% completion percentage, considering it a more consistently challenging accomplishment.

The Cowboys' offense, under new leadership, is among the league's best, with Prescott leading a unit that includes players ranked in the top five nationally for passing, rushing, and receiving. This exceptional balance makes Dallas unique in the NFL this season. Beyond statistics, head coach Brian Schottenheimer highlights Prescott's invaluable leadership, accountability, and confidence, which are crucial in guiding younger players and fostering team-driven discussions.
