Dak Prescott’s legs are weapons, but the Cowboys aren’t using them enough

When coming out of Mississippi State in 2016, Dak Prescott was known for being more of a mobile quarterback than a true pocket passer. In his four years at Mississippi State, Prescott combined for 536 attempts, 2,521 rushing yards, and 41 rushing touchdowns. Prescott was the definition of a dual-threat quarterback.

Since entering the league in 2016, Prescott has been up and down as a passer. One week, he looks like one of the better passers in the NFC. The next, he looks more like a backup. One thing that has remained consistent for Dak over his first three years is how dangerous he is when he tucks the football and runs with it.
