Dak Prescott’s ‘You Couldn’t Wear Red?’ Remark to Erin Andrews Resurfaces

FOX Sports sideline reporter Erin Andrews recently recalled a resurfaced exchange with Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. During a Christmas Eve matchup, Andrews wore a festive green suit, which caught Prescott’s attention on the field.

Since green is the Philadelphia Eagles’ signature color, Prescott questioned why she was not wearing red instead. Andrews quickly responded with a funny remark, pointing to her Thanksgiving outfit as her defense.

Andrews recalled: “Oh, and I’ve had players call me out, like literally call me out. They’ll be like, ‘Oh, really? Wow. What, what are you doing?’” Andrews said. “I was working a Dallas Cowboys Christmas Eve game years ago, and I had a fabulous, like, Christmas green suit, and the Cowboys won. And Dak was like, ‘What are we doing?’ And I was like, ‘I swear to God, this is all about Christmas.’ Like, he goes, ‘You couldn’t wear red?’ And I was like, ‘I wore red for Thanksgiving.’ Like, come on.”

Andrews revisited clothing expectations and shared this funny exchange during an episode of her Calm Down with Erin and Charissa podcast. She added, “Guys can walk into these stadiums wearing whatever the hell they want. Even guys on television can wear whatever they want. But God forbid. It’s such a fun moment, though, if you think about it.”

Dallas’ official recap credited Prescott with a season-high 347 passing yards and three touchdowns in the 2022 game. It was his first 300-yard passing game of the season. He completed 27 of 35 passes, and CeeDee Lamb caught 10 passes for 120 yards.

The Cowboys ultimately secured a thrilling 40-34 victory over their division rivals that afternoon, giving Prescott and the team plenty to celebrate – even if they had some critiques for the sideline fashion.
