Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Dak Prescott

Friday, October 31, 11:35 AM

The Athletic's Josh Kendall reports that the Atlanta Falcons have yet to have "any serious trade discussions with another team," regarding quarterback Kirk Cousins ahead of next Tuesday's trade deadline. Cousins has been the speculation of quarterback-needy teams, although his recent performance in a blowout loss to the Miami Dolphins likely didn't help his case. As it stands, Atlanta is likely to hold both the veteran and second-year pro Michael Penix Jr. (knee). However, Kendall notes that doesn't mean Cousins is a long-term fit for the team. He figures to resume backup duties behind Penix Jr. once the latter is fully recovered from his knee injury. That's likely to change following the 2025 season.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed 24 of 39 pass attempts for 250 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding 34 yards on four carries in Monday night's 27-17 loss to the Cardinals. Prescott struggled a bit in this game, taking five sacks for a loss of 40 yards and turning it over on downs three times. The interception came at the very end of the game on a desperation heave on a 4th and 28. The 32-year-old led the offense to only 10 points, as the Cowboys scored one of their two touchdowns on a blocked punt. Prescott was able to at least salvage decent fantasy days for his top three pass catchers in CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Jake Ferguson. Prescott and the Cowboys will head into their Week 10 bye on a two-game losing streak.
