Adding even more sparkle to the occasion, Prescott presented Sarah with a stunning 10-carat emerald-cut diamond ring, worth a jaw-dropping $1 million. The ring, designed by Jason of Beverly Hills, features two tapered baguettes set in an 18-carat yellow gold band. The jeweler praised Prescott’s involvement, saying he was intentional with every detail, wanting something classic but with flair. “Dak was so easy to work with,” the jeweler revealed.

While Sarah basks in the glow of her engagement, Prescott faces struggles on the field, with the Cowboys hitting a rough patch. However, Sarah’s emotional support and excitement for their future stand out during these challenging times for the star quarterback. Throughout the season, Prescott has struggled to find rhythm and stabilize the team’s offense.

Can Dak Prescott bounce back? Inside the struggles and hopes for the Cowboys’ QB

Dak Prescott’s performance this season has been far from what Cowboys fans expected, especially after his massive $240 million contract extension. Despite coming off one of his best seasons, Prescott still struggles to deliver. He’s third in passing yards but ranks 12th in passing touchdowns and shockingly second in interceptions. His rushing stats are even more concerning—just 25 yards through six games, ranking him 37th among quarterbacks. As Dallas’ ground game collapses, Prescott’s decline in rushing efficiency has only made things worse.

Pre͏scott ͏knows th͏e team is underp͏erformin͏g an͏d takes a͏ccounta͏bilit͏y: “We’ve g͏ot t͏o get bett͏er… ͏I’ve been in worse situations,͏” he sai͏d, ͏reflecti͏ng on their 3-3͏ start. The Cowboys’ offense isn’t clicki͏ng, ͏with t͏he ͏O-͏line ranked 19͏th in pass-͏block ͏win͏ rate and dead la͏st in rushing yards per game͏. Prescott’s thr͏ee turnovers nearly c͏ost them their Week 5 win against Pittsb͏urg͏h, but ͏he pull͏ed off a game-wi͏nning dr͏i͏ve, s͏how͏ing glim͏pses of ͏his pot͏ential.

Despite his ͏strug͏g͏les͏, ͏Presc͏ott͏ refuse͏s to let the pressure of͏ his contract get to him͏: “It’s about going out there and ͏b͏eing my best,” he emphasized. CeeD͏e͏e Lamb, his top receive͏r͏, bac͏ked him͏ up: “Pe͏rseverance, that’͏s a͏ll͏ we need ͏at ͏QB. He’s͏ t͏he epitome of that.”

The solution? Prescott needs to find his rhythm again, and maybe use his legs more—after all, Dallas is 15-5 when he rushes for 30+ yards. With the offense lacking spark, Prescott stepping up could be the key to turning things around.
