Quarterback Dak Prescott finished the game with 335 passing yards. During his press conference after the game, though, Prescott was seen with his throwing hand wrapped up.

The Cowboys are now 2-2, and they have the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the schedule next week. Tampa Bay's quarterback has a hand issue of his own, as a thumb injury held Baker Mayfield out of action this week. Jalon Daniels was thrust into action in Mayfield's absence.
