The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for quarterback Dak Prescott to start Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium on Sept. 9, Jay Glazer reported on Fox Sports.
Prescott is dealing with a shoulder ailment that Glazer described as "more of a baseball injury" ahead of Thursday's preseason Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. That shouldn't keep the QB out too long, and the Cowboys "fully expect" he'll be ready for the start of the season, per Glazer.
The 28-year-old is coming back from a season-ending ankle injury that ended his 2020 campaign in Week 5.
