Dallas QB Prescott carted off with leg injury


Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott left with an apparent serious leg or ankle injury the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the visiting New York Giants.

Prescott gained 9 yards on a called quarterback draw and was tackled by New York safety Logan Ryan.

He immediately clutched his right lower leg. After a cast was placed on the leg, Prescott appeared to be crying as he was carted off the field at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Dallas led 24-23 at the time of the injury. Veteran Andy Dalton replaced Prescott.

Prescott completed 14 of 21 passes for 166 yards with one interception. He also caught an 11-yard touchdown pass.

The 27-year-old Prescott entered the game leading the NFL in completions (137), attempts (201) and passing yards (1,690).
