Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott revealed the wholesome message he had for Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson after the latter suffered a gruesome injury in Sunday’s game at AT&T Stadium.
Hutchinson had to be carted off the field after suffering a leg injury in the third quarter of the Lions’ 47-9 blowout win over Dak Prescott’s Cowboys. It was later announced that he underwent surgery to repair a fractured tibia and fibula, and it’s unclear if Hutchinson will return this season.
Speaking to reporters after the game, Prescott shared the classy message he had for Detroit’s star pass-rusher following the heartbreaking scene that unfolded, via Garrett Podell of CBS Sports:
“Obviously, that’s tough to watch, as you said, having experienced it, knowing where he is in that moment. Hated it. Hated every bit of it. But for me, initially, I just told him to keep his head up. It’s part of the story. I promise, the way that this guy started his career, the guy he seems to be, not knowing him, he’ll be better after it. I know it’s probably hard to imagine right now.
Then the last part, I just told him [on the field] it’s part of the story. It’s part of his story…So, game changer, wishing him the best in his recovery. I know it’s going to be a mental challenge as much as it is physical, but the way that he started his career, and the player that he seems to be, I imagine he’ll be just fine and recover from it.”
Hutchinson had one sack, three quarterback hits and a tackle for a loss in the Lions’ 47-9 victory that moved them to 5-1 on the year. Winners of three straight, the Lions will look to claim sole possession of first place in the NFC North when they visit the 5-0 Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.

Dak Prescott himself had a tough outing in what was one of the most humiliating losses in Dallas Cowboys history. The 31-year-old completed just 17 of 33 pass attempts for 178 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss.
The 3-3 Cowboys get a much-needed bye week and time to rest up before traveling to Levi’s Stadium for a Week 8 road game against the San Francisco 49ers on “Sunday Night Football.”
Dak Prescott & Cowboys Are Struggling At Home
The Cowboys went unbeaten at home for nearly two full years before losing to the New Orleans Saints at home in Week 2. That was followed by a close Week 3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, with consecutive road wins bringing them to 3-2.
With Sunday’s humiliating loss, the Cowboys are inexplicably 0-3 now at Jerry World. A fourth straight playoff berth is essentially out of the question if they can’t solve the home funk, and quickly.

NBA fans are praying for basketball icon Michael Jordan following the emergence of a certain photo.
Jordan, who is widely considered to be the greatest NBA player of all time, was in France this week watching Monaco play Barcelona. The teams squared off for a UEFA Champions League showdown at the Louis II Stadium on Thursday, with the home side snatching a shocking 2-1 victory.
Photos of MJ in the stands quickly surfaced online, with his eyes a worrying shade of yellow.
Check it out below:
The outing hardly marked the first time Jordan’s eyes got fans talking, but it appears whatever the condition is has gotten worse. Most fans are of the view that he’s jaundiced due to excessive drinking and could be dealing with liver problems.
