Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of a hamstring injury that forced him to exit Sunday’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons, The Associated Press reports.
Prescott described the injury as “a pull, something I’ve never felt” but expressed his determination to play in next week’s crucial NFC East matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The injury occurred during the third quarter of the game, which the Cowboys ultimately lost 27-21. Prescott also appeared to sustain an injury to his right hand towards the end of the third quarter.
Despite the setbacks, Prescott finished the game completing 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and a touchdown. He also added 30 yards rushing on three carries. The loss was the Cowboys’ third in a row, dropping their record to 3-5 on the season.
