The Dallas Cowboys and head coach Mike McCarthy are having fun with the preseason finale. A lot has been made about McCarthy taking over play-calling on offense this year, but tonight he’s enlisted an offensive assistant to help—quarterback Dak Prescott.
This is different and fun: Cowboys QB Dak Prescott to call offensive plays tonight in preseason finale vs. Raiders, two people familiar with decision said. Mike McCarthy has emphasized player ownership of offense all offseason. Play sheet is Prescott’s. https://t.co/CwcADPlsBK

Since OTAs and minicamp, McCarthy has emphasized Prescott being at the center of his offense.
