When Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott trotted to the locker room during practice last week , fans found themselves holding their breath.

This time in Oxnard, it's only a right shoulder strain. Not ideal, but the team continues to keep its hope optimistic and its treatment conservative.
Prescott has not practiced since, and head coach Mike McCarthy said the team has “taken a step back” with his treatment plan. Prescott will not make the trip to Canton for Thursday night's preseason opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Hall of Fame Game.
“We want to make sure this doesn’t turn into something bigger,” McCarthy said.
