The Dallas Cowboys earned an important victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday to improve to 2-2 on the season, rallying from a double-digit deficit in the second half. It was a massive win that could change the trajectory of the season for the Cowboys. But during his postgame press conference, Prescott took some time to talk about his faith rather than the game.
Throughout the season, Prescott and other members of the Cowboys have seemingly been more open about expressing their religious faith publicly than they have in the past. Prescott agrees with that observation, and it sounds like it’s no accident.
“Absolutely. I think credit ‘Schotty’ [Head Coach Brian Schottenheimer] and his leadership and the way that he’s opened that up. That’s who he is. That’s who I am. That’s who a lot of the guys on our team are and trying to be contagious and understand we’re all here because of God and we’re all here to serve a greater purpose. That’s my point about opening your perspective up when things happen, win, lose, or draw, what’s the purpose?” Prescott said after the game via Clarence Hill Jr.
“What does God have meaning for this? We may not always have the answers for it but we know what God wants us to do in our response and that’s be the best versions of ourselves, serving Him, serving others and doing it with just pure love. I’m thankful for this team. We’ve got great chaplains in Jonathan and Dr. Evans and so they’re helping lead that cause and that’s life.”
Prescott made it pretty clear that he feels that this is something bigger than him or the team, and they’ve all made a point to share it.
“I’ve been through so much in my life. God’s always been the reason and, yeah. Who I fall back on and my refuge, as I say, I can’t thank Him enough and never will be able to thank Him enough and just to see that transcend throughout our team, starting with our head coach is special,” Prescott continued. “It’s something that we take pride in. At the end of the day, it’s about giving Him the glory. From that, good things will come, all great things will come, so thankful for that.”
Prescott was undeniably happy to get the win, but it sounds like his faith is an even bigger part of his life than football and he’s not going to stop sharing it.
