Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones thinks that Dak Prescott belongs in the MVP conversation.
There has been MVP-candidate buzz circling around Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, and team owner Jerry Jones is all over the conversation in support of Prescott.
“I certainly do [think he belongs in the conversation],” Jones said as on Tuesday, Jones made his weekly appearance on 105.3 The Fan with “Shan & RJ.” “He’s put games together that are the best of his career, in my view. And the best right at the top of many that I’ve seen. It’s the fact he’s doing them back-to-back and of course, his play, and how he’s impacting those games.”
Prescott has recorded a total of 1,354 yards, 12 touchdowns and only two interceptions in his past four matchups this season. During that time frame, the Cowboys have acquired a 3-1 record.
Dallas’ quarterback is ranked No. 1 amongst all NFL quarterbacks when it comes to his passing completion rate (70.7 percent). He is also tied with four other quarterbacks for the third most touchdowns in the league at 17.
Jones applauds Prescott’s athletic ability on the field, but he is more impressed with his work ethic and mentality entering the matchups every week.
don’t want to say he’s making it look easy … But, boy is he really in a position not only physical, but it’s mental,” Jones said. “He’s really showed us all hard work, all the time he’s put in and, frankly, the adjustments that have been made the past year. We’re really seeing the fruits of that. If you put the work in and you take it to the practice field and you take it to the game, then it pays off.
“He is the best I’ve ever seen from taking it in the classroom to the field and we’re seeing the fruits of that.”
