Cowboys' Dak Prescott expected to miss several weeks, source says

FRISCO, Texas -- Monday had a lot of moving parts for the Dallas Cowboys, now 3-5 after Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Falcons, and none bigger than the health of quarterback Dak Prescott.

Coach Mike McCarthy said the Cowboys were only prepared to say Prescott will miss Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles with a right hamstring injury, while a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that Prescott is expected to miss several weeks.

Prescott is in the process of getting a second opinion and once that information is finalized the Cowboys could discuss the possibility of putting him on injured reserve.
