Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is dealing with a sore ankle that will keep him out of Friday's practice.
The Cowboys announced (h/t NFL Network's Tom Pelissero) that Prescott "will be fine" and his absence is a precautionary measure.
NFL Network's Jane Slater added that a source told her Prescott's absence from practice was "not injury related" and "nothing serious at all."
Prescott is coming off the best season of his career. He threw for 4,516 yards and an NFL-high 36 touchdowns in 17 starts to finish second in MVP voting.
While there is always a bright spotlight on Prescott and the Cowboys, things are even more intense this season because of their playoff struggles the past three seasons.
