Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) will take most of the team's first-team reps at OTAs after healing up from a torn hamstring, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Prescott missed the final nine games of the 2024 season due to the lower-body ailment but looks to be firmly on track to be 100% healthy to start the 2025 season. The former fourth-round pick out of Mississippi State is entering his 10th NFL campaign with Dallas and has thrown for 31,437 yards, 213 touchdowns, and 82 interceptions in 122 career contests. While Prescott is not the same runner as he was early in his career, he's still mobile and has a solid group of weapons to work with in CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Jake Ferguson. At his QB13 ADP, he is a tremendous second QB in superflex formats, and he could be a viable single-QB fantasy option in the right matchups.

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell didn't really acknowledge whether former first-round quarterback J.J. McCarthy (knee) will face competition for the starting job in 2025. "J.J. is going to be in a great position to assume and ascend in our organization," O'Connell said on The Rich Eisen Show. "But right now, we really don't have any feelings on competition as much as we've got an obligation as coaches to put our players in position to attack that competition phase." Sam Howell and Brett Rypien are the other options in the QB room. O'Connell did say that McCarthy is "owning it" this offseason and will get plenty of reps with the starters. The 22-year-old missed his entire rookie season due to a torn meniscus in his right knee, but he's fully expected to be ready for the start of 2025. O'Connell said he's seen a difference in McCarthy's footwork, rhythm, timing and cadence from a year ago. The Vikes like him a lot, so he's expected to be the starter in Week 1, where he'll be a low-end QB2 in fantasy with upside.
