Who Should I Start? Dak Prescott or Jaxson Dart

Tuesday, April 15, 1:14 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring), who is recovering from a torn right hamstring suffered last year, said that he would be in attendance for the team's voluntary workouts this week but will be limited. Prescott said last Friday that his surgically repaired hamstring has been improving and that he thought he could play in games right now if he had to. The 31-year-old played in just eight games in 2024 and had surgery on his hamstring in November. The fact that he's even participating in voluntary workouts is a good sign. Barring a setback this summer, Prescott should be ready to rock as a low-end QB1 option for fantasy managers for Week 1 this fall. The three-time Pro Bowler had a career year in 2023 but had 1,978 passing yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions at the time of his injury last year.

The New York Giants eventually expect rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart to be their starting QB and the face of their franchise, but they won't put any pressure on him to be their QB1 before they feel he is ready for the job. Until then, the coaching staff will try to do everything they can to help the 21-year-old signal-caller become the best QB he can be. "He's got the makings of a good quarterback, and there's a long way to go. There's a developmental process that he's going to have to go through. Again, these offenses are not easy to learn, and the execution has to be at a high level," general manager Joe Schoen said. When rookie minicamp starts this Friday, Dart will merely be looking to get comfortable with the offensive scheme. Russell Wilson is going to start the year under center in New York, and depending on how the season goes, Dart could sit and learn all year.
