Dak Prescott to be Limited in Minicamp With "Sore Knee"

Tuesday, June 16, 9:21 AM

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said on Tuesday that quarterback Dak Prescott (knee) will be limited at mandatory minicamp this week with a "sore knee," according to Tommy Yarrish of the team's official website. However, Schottenheimer added that it's "nothing we're concerned about." The Cowboys aren't going to push their star QB during minicamp. The 32-year-old veteran should be all systems go for the start of training camp at the end of July, but we'll be keeping a close eye on his knee anyway. Going into his 11th year in the NFL, the four-time Pro Bowler will be a low-end QB1 target for fantasy managers after throwing for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in 17 starts for the Cowboys in 2025. Prescott's lack of mobility as a rusher limits his overall fantasy ceiling, but he has one of the best one-two punches in the league at receiver in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens to make up for it in one of the most pass-friendly offenses in the league. RotoBaller has Prescott ranked as the No. 10 fantasy QB for the 2026 season.

Lamar Jackson News

Lamar Jackson has Rave Reviews for New OC Declan Doyle

Tuesday, June 23, 10:08 AM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and other offensive players seem to be fans of new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, who will be calling plays for the first time in his career under new head coach Jesse Minter in 2025. "It's a different system than what I'm accustomed to being in, and I feel like there's going to be a lot of explosiveness this year," Jackson said. "The way [offensive coordinator] Declan [Doyle] calls plays and his creativity with his mind -- how detailed he is -- it's mind-blowing. I'm excited." The two-time MVP QB will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing and injury-plagued 2025 season in which he threw for only 2,549 yards, 21 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 13 starts. Defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver called Doyle "a human computer." With Jackson lined up more under center under Doyle, he'll be an obvious bounce-back candidate in 2026 if he can avoid the nagging injuries that dogged him last year. Despite a down year in 2025, Jackson isn't going to come at much of a discount as an obvious top-five fantasy QB because of his elite dual-threat abilities at the position.
