Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is ready to roll.
Prescott, 31, said he would suit up for a game right now as he recovers from a season-ending hamstring injury.
“If I had to play a game today, I definitely could do that,” Prescott said via ESPN on Friday. “It’s about moving forward healthy to make sure I can play 17 times, 20 (games)– whatever we get to when the time’s right.”

Prescott sustained a partial avulsion, meaning the hamstring tendon partially tore off the bone during the Cowboys’ Week 9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He underwent surgery on the hamstring in November.
“I’m getting close to where I want to be. I don’t want to put a percentage on it,” Prescott said. “I know we’ve got team activities coming up, imagine myself being involved in some sort, if not all.

“Then again, I just understand my age, what I’ve had, what I’ve went through, it’s about being my best in the fall. So I’m not rushing anything, but I’m where I want to be.”
Prescott started eight games for the Cowboys last season, and they went 3 for 5 in his starts. He completed nearly 65% of his passes for 1978 yards with 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
The three-time Pro Bowler threw nearly as many interceptions last season (8) as he did the year before (9) despite only playing in eight games.
The Cowboys signed Prescott to a four-year, $240 million contract prior to the season beginning last year, which made him the highest-paid quarterback in the NFL.
