Entering NFL Week 9, the team was sitting at 3-4 and had lost 2 games in a row.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for the Cowboys, the team suffered more bad news on Sunday. With the team trailing 27-13 to the Atlanta Falcons, Prescott suffered a hamstring injury and had to leave the game. The QB was unable to return, and the Cowboys suffered a 27-21 loss.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Dak Prescott has been ruled out for the remainder of the game with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n<p>( FOX) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Re22ylTnwZ\">pic.twitter.com\/Re22ylTnwZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 ESPN (@espn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/espn\/status\/1853171823321473149?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 3, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>It was unusual how Prescott suffered the injury.
