The Cowboys lost Dak Prescott to a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter against the Atlanta Falcons.

Backup quarterback Cooper Rush entered in his place.

Prescott had rushed three times for 30 yards in the game, plus a fourth scramble that was called back due to a holding penalty.

He rushed twice on the drive before he went out.

The Cowboys trailed 27-13 as Rush went in.

Prescott completed 18 of 24 passes for 133 yards and a touchdown in addition to his 30 rushing yards.

Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was also ruled questionable to return with a late shoulder injury he suffered.
