ARLINGTON, Texas -- Dak Prescott was hospitalized with a serious right ankle injury against the New York Giants on Sunday that forced him to leave the game on a cart and in tears.
The Dallas Cowboys' star quarterback will undergo ankle surgery Sunday night, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen.
Prescott was hurt with 6 minutes, 33 seconds to play in the third quarter while being tackled by Giants defensive back Logan Ryan after a 9-yard run. Prescott's ankle appeared to dislocate as he awaited help from medical personnel.
AT&T Stadium was hushed as Prescott was examined by Cowboys' medical personnel for several minutes before leaving on the cart.
Players from both teams, as well as former Cowboys head coach and current Giants offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, consoled Prescott as he left to a big cheer. He raised his right hand in acknowledgement........https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/30094698/dak-prescott-dallas-cowboys-carted-field-ankle-injury

The Cowboys still won on a last second field goal

Compound fracture... looked like some spiraling was likely to my eye. So pins and wire will be employed.
Big question is how much and what soft tissue was damaged in the break and/or will be cut during the surgery. There's where the recovery time is involved, not the break itself.
Good luck, Dak... see you somewhere in 2021.

And interestingly enough in comes the redhead to strike two long sideline throws with WR feet just in bounds to set up the winning FG. Could not do that in Cincy, but does it his first chance in Dallas.?

Jets, Giants, Falcons all still winless. But would they be in QB market if they had #1?
Jags at 1-4 still primary in contention for Trevor. Cowboys in first place in NFCE...why would they have #1 overall pick dreams?

USA TODAY SPORTS.......ARLINGTON, Texas — The ambulance was ready as Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was carted off the field, tears streaming down his face.
Prescott was transported to a local hospital immediately and is scheduled to undergo surgery Sunday night for a compound ankle fracture and dislocation he suffered in a win against the Giants.
The gruesome injury occurred in the third quarter when Prescott scrambled 9 yards left, tangling with Giants defensive back Logan Ryan on Ryan’s tackle. Prescott’s right leg was turned out as he sat, devastated, near the left sideline of the red zone. The stadium went quiet as players attempted to process the injury to the quarterback who had started 68 straight games since Dallas selected him in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL draft.
“It’s tough,” draft classmate and running back Ezekiel Elliott said. “You see how durable he’s been throughout his whole career, and how tough. It sucks to see a warrior go down like that.”
Prescott was treated with sterile dressing on site before surgery to wash the wound and fix the fracture.
Even Giants coordinator Jason Garrett, Prescott’s coach for the quarterback's first four years, approached Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy to express his remorse.......

Not good to have good players injured. But I am not going to cry for that team Argentina.
No one cries for us when it happens.
It's part of a very tough game......and he has a fully guaranteed one year franchise tag for $31.5M to make him feel better.
I wish Dak a quick recovery fracture/dislocations can be tough. I had one in my neck and ended up with permanent fused vertebrae and wires and that was 34 years ago.
Professional football leaves many as the walking wounded when they are done but most all say they'd do it again.
It is a tough game.

Just saw a video.. You'd wish that to happen to no one... Good Luck, Dak and get the hell out of Dallas..
Somehow, he'll get blamed for hiring the coaching staff & their decisions also.. What a weird negotiating deal this will become.. Get life well first & Good Luck Dak

They are saying bones were sticking out of skin....that's serious.
I don't care if I don't root for the Cowboys, that sucks. All indications are that he's a really good dude. But I'd be OK with the Red Rifle doing well. Dak was putting up crazy #s but not winning so much. Watch Andy start stacking wins.
