Fans reacted as Dak Prescott, gearing up for his 10th season in the NFL, sunk a 65-foot putt on the golf course.

Amid his offseason preparations, Prescott took some time off from football as the quarterback spent a day of recreation playing golf at the Stonebriar Country Club in Frisco, Texas.

In a video that went viral on social media, Dak Prescott showed off his talent with the club, draining a 65-foot putt to win the match, which surprised everyone on the golf course.

Fans shared their reactions to the Cowboys quarterback making the 65-foot putt.

"Most clutch thing he's ever done... By a large margin," one commented. "He hasn't had a reason to celebrate like that in years!!!," another said. "Hell of a shot, but when you play for Dallas, you have more than enough off season time to hone your golf game," one said sarcastically "It's too bad that clutch never shows up in the NFL playoffs," another wrote. "bruh celebrating like he made it to the playoffs lmaoo," one said. "Dak, this lifelong Cowboys gives you 100% permission to pursue your dream to play on the PGA Tour," one commented.

Since taking over as the starting quarterback, Dak Prescott has led the Cowboys to five playoff appearances, but they haven't competed in the Super Bowl. In September 2024, the quarterback agreed a four-year extension worth $240 million.

The Dallas Cowboys drafted Prescott with the 135th pick in the 2016 NFL draft. Last season, he led the team to a 7-10 record, failing to qualify for the playoffs.

Dak Prescott opens up about rehabilitation journey after season-ending injury

During the Cowboys' showdown against the Falcons in Week 9 last season, Dak Prescott suffered a hamstring injury. That resulted in him getting sidelined for the rest of the season, and one of the reasons why the team failed to qualify for the playoffs.

While spending time on the golf course this week, the quarterback explained his rehabilitation journey and the process of regaining trust in his body.

"It should happen in rehab, you know what I mean," Prescott said. "I usually break mine in rehab and honestly, I mean it's not a good thing when you've been injured like I have encountered throughout my career, just different injuries, you really just grow to trust the surgery. "If I had surgery, I had it for a reason, and I trust my rehab process, so like I don't really think about it once I've rehabbed, and the doc says you're good to go."

Prescott will look forward to a strong comeback this year as the Cowboys begin their 2025 campaign against the Eagles in September.
