Dak Prescott, Cowboys work on giving defenses deep thoughts

OXNARD, Calif. -- Time after time during individual drills Sunday, Dak Prescott kept throwing deep.

A straight go route. A stop-and-go. A slant-and-go. An out-and-up. Any variation of the deep ball, Prescott kept firing it to his wide receivers. First it was Terrance Williams. Then Tavon Austin. Then Lance Lenoir. Williams again. Austin again.

Most of the time the passes were in good spots, leading the receivers into a position to make a play, but not the defensive backs.

Prescott's best delivery came on an out-and-up to Lenoir, who turned cornerback Anthony Brown around, but Lenoir couldn’t hang on to the pass as it came down from the sky.
