The Dallas Cowboys are as healthy as they've been all season, but there's still a notable injury to keep eyes on headed into Week 12's home game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott popped up on the injury report Wednesday with a hip injury following Week 11's 33-16 win over the Las Vegas Raiders.

He didn't miss any time against Las Vegas but appears to have been banged up during the game.

"Just dinged up, but nothing major," Schottenheimer said of Prescott. " ... He's going to be fine, but we're going to be real smart with the tempo today."

Schottenheimer noted that Prescott is only on the injury report since the team is on a short week after playing on Monday Night Football.

It's no secret that the Cowboys will need Prescott if they want a chance to take down the defending Super Bowl champions on Sunday, but fortunately Dallas fans don't have to anything to worry about when it comes to their star quarterback.
