“It's always great and a blessing to be here during camp season,” Prescott said. “I'm just excited. It's special. Being a quarterback and being able to impact kids the way I am today is one of the things about being in this position as I get older.” This is the game of football, and I've been playing it all my life.''I was the same age as them, and I loved the game just as much. And he will be 30 years old soon. You of all ages here will know what this game is all about. I love giving back, playing games and socializing. ”
Regarding Dak turning 30 on July 29, five days after the start of training camp, the quarterback was asked what that means to him personally from a professional standpoint.
“I think I've always felt older, and I don't necessarily care just because I'm 30,” Prescott said. “Knowing that I'm an old man, going into my eighth year, meeting some of the younger players and rookies and realizing what a difference eight years makes. I know I'm going to stay connected and stay present. So it's fun and sometimes challenging.”
What about the sense of urgency? Obviously, the Cowboys are eager to get over the hump and get past the divisional round of the playoffs, something they haven't done since the 1995 season when they won the Super Bowl last year.
But does turning 30 make Duck want more wins?
“1000 percent,” Duck said. “Understanding the injuries and the situations I've been in throughout my career and understanding that I'm not going to be able to play this game forever. I'm blessed with every moment. Just with a sense of urgency. I’m just trying to accept it.”
