Amid his 10th season — all with Dallas — Prescott has now eclipsed 2,500 yards passing eight times, including a 4,902-yard showing in 2019 that saw him finish just a yard shy of Romo’s single-season club record (4,903; 2012).
Selected in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, Prescott succeeded Romo as the Cowboys’ franchise quarterback, with the latter concluding his career after the 2016 campaign.
Though critics often point to the team’s lack of success during Prescott’s tenure (four division titles, five playoff berths without a trip beyond the Divisional Round), Prescott’s individual contributions are inarguable. The 2018 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year has gone to three Pro Bowls, surpassed 3,500 passing yards in five seasons and tossed 30-or-more touchdowns in three campaigns.
And now, Prescott’s name is etched as the No. 1 passer in Dallas chronicle.
