Dak Prescott Set to Host Offseason Retreat to Spark Cowboys Offensive Chemistry
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is entering Year 10 of his career and grateful to be fully healthy again. Prescott looked good during mandatory minicamp and built a consistent rapport with newcomer George Pickens and his tight end duo of Jake Ferguson and Brevyn Spann-Ford and others.

As Cowboys players prepare for a brief break before the dog days of training camp on July 22, Prescott is set to host his annual retreat for offensive skill position players. Last year, the three-day retreat took place in Beaverton, Oregon, where the group got a chance to bond off the field while also building chemistry on the field.
'You can catch a lot of JUGS, you can catch passes, but you want them catching them from you, catching them from the quarterbacks,' Prescott said Thursday after the final day of the mandatory minicamp. 'And then ... there's that camaraderie. Getting those guys together ... getting George here in the last couple months. [We] know him, we're growing. But just getting to know him better, deeper, getting to know all the guys ...''
Prescott's 2024 season was cut short after he suffered a torn hamstring in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons.
As the unquestioned leader of the team, the 31-year-old signal-caller wants to ensure his teammates are approaching the upcoming season with a winning mentality.

'It's been a great offseason,' Prescott said. 'It's going to continue to be a great offseason until we get to camp. Honestly, just the momentum, just staying healthy and the momentum of this minicamp, these OTAs, and making sure that I'm not the only one who keeps that momentum, but the rest of the guys and make sure some of these young guys are doing the things necessary and taking care of their bodies to hit the ground running when we get together in July.'
Prescott will look to lead a Dallas offense that is full of firepower and could be one of the league's best. That happens in Oxnard near the end of July.
But it happens in Oregon before that.
