Dak Prescott’s training camp is off to a rough start.
Things appeared tense between the Cowboys quarterback and cornerback Trevon Diggs on Tuesday afternoon when Prescott attempted to escape the pass rush and run for a touchdown during practice.
After Prescott eluded a defender he was met in the end zone by Diggs, who started yelling at him.
“Shut yo b—h a– up,” Diggs said while Prescott stood with his hands on his hips.
Veteran safety Malik Hooker also had an exchange with his quarterback, but it’s unclear what was said.
That came after Prescott had NFL Twitter already casting doubt on last month’s promise to “lessen my interception numbers.”
On Monday, Prescott didn’t help his case when he threw an interception to Hooker on a pass downfield intended for Brandin Cooks.
