Dak Prescott Opens 11th Cowboys Camp on 33rd Birthday

Wednesday, July 29, 12:06 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott opened his 11th training camp with the organization Wednesday, the same day he turned 33, according to Tommy Yarrish. Prescott has spent his entire career in Dallas since the Cowboys selected him 135th overall in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He enters the 2026 season after starting all 17 games and completing 404 of 600 passes for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions with a 99.5 passer rating in 2025. His passing-yardage total ranked third in the NFL and was the second highest of his career, trailing only the 4,902 yards he recorded in 2019. Prescott also rushed 53 times for 177 yards and two scores last season. The veteran remains Dallas' unquestioned starter and continues to offer fantasy value through his passing volume and touchdown production.

Lamar Jackson News

Lamar Jackson's Dynasty Value on the Rise with New Coaching Staff in Baltimore?

Thursday, July 16, 10:21 AM

Thanks largely to hamstring and back injuries that caused him to miss four games, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson put together an underwhelming season by his own lofty standards in 2025. Across 13 games, the 29-year-old threw for 2,549 yards and 21 touchdowns while rushing for 349 yards and two scores. After a QB1 finish in 2024, Jackson fell to QB16 in per-game scoring in 2025. Entering 2026, Jackson will be working with a new offensive coordinator in Declan Doyle and a revamped wide receiver corps that includes 2026 draftees Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt. As he enters his age-29 season, Baltimore may look to utilize Jackson's legs less often in order to keep him healthy. Even still, Jackson has proven he's the most dangerous dual-threat quarterback in fantasy football when Baltimore's offense is fully operational. With a new coaching staff around him, Jackson remains an elite dynasty asset.
