Things got absolutely wild in the AT&T Stadium tunnel last Thursday night after the Cowboys’ loss to the Buccaneers, and Dak Prescott was NOT having it. As Prescott was making his way to the locker room, a stadium worker hit him with one brutal word: “Embarrassing.”
“Get His Ass Out Of Here”
Seriously, dude? You’re gonna throw shade right after a tough loss? Prescott heard it loud and clear. He looked at the worker, kept moving, but then let a Cowboys employee know exactly how he felt, saying, “Tough guy. Get his ass out of here.” The Cowboys employee tried to track down the worker, but the guy, who was apparently a driver from a third-party contractor, had already peaced out of the area. Talk about adding insult to injury when a player’s already steaming.
Prescott Calls Out The Cowardice
When asked about the incident after the game, Prescott didn’t hold back on why he was so fired up. He said, “When he said it I just happened to look at him, and at that point he looked away, didn’t look, and when I turned my head back, he said something else.” Prescott’s real beef wasn’t just with the comment, but the way it was delivered. He continued, “So that’s the part that, just as a man or a person, feel free to speak your mind. Just speak it. Don’t coward away from the reaction that you’re going to get. If you’re saying it’s embarrassing, say it’s embarrassing. If you’re saying it to me, say it to me. Don’t go back on it. That’s all it was. I hate that it’s even bein.” You gotta respect Prescott wanting folks to stand by their words, especially when they’re dishing out criticism like that. It’s one thing to have an opinion; it’s another to not own it to a player’s face.
