The Dallas Cowboys are in dire need of a QB now that Dak Prescott will be out for a few months and fans think one player is the obvious choice to replace him while he’s gone.
On Sunday, it was revealed that Prescott had injured his thumb when a Bus defender hit his hand trying to bat down a ball.
According to ESPN’s Todd Archer, Prescott will have surgery on his hand and will be out 6-8 weeks.
Dak Prescott is expected to have surgery Monday on a right thumb injury and miss 6-8 weeks, according to multiple sources. He will meet with the team’s hand specialist on Monday, but sources said he will have a pin and plate inserted to stabilize the joint.

He will likely be placed on injured reserve but will be eligible to return later in the year. If he follows the 6-8 week timeframe, he could return as soon as Oct. 30 vs. Chicago or Nov. 13 at Green Bay following the bye.

Considering Cooper Rush is now the Cowboys top QB fans are issuing suggestions for other QB replacements. .
One player that is getting plenty of mentions on social media is free agent QB Cam Newton.
Cowboys go get Cam Newton 👀
