Dak Prescott Champions Girls’ Flag Football as Cowboys Launch High School League

ARLINGTON, TX -- Over the years that Dak Prescott has ascended from a fourth-round NFL Draft pick to the league's highest-paid quarterback, plenty of people have asked him if he ever expected to be the franchise quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. And, honestly, if he hadn’t grown up watching Donovan McNabb play for the Philadelphia Eagles, the answer is probably no. But he believed in himself because he had a role model that looked like him.

Prescott is a Girl Dad now, with one baby daughter and a second on the way in May. They inspired him to attend the Dallas Cowboys’ launch of their High School Girls Flag Football League. He thanked the girls from 32 Dallas-Fort Worth area high schools in attendance on Saturday for being pioneers for his daughters and the next generation of women.
