Entering his 10th season, Dak Prescott is now the longest-tenured member of the Dallas Cowboys with the retirement of Zack Martin and the free agent loss of DeMarcus Lawrence, Todd Archer of ESPN reports..

"It's amazing how fast it happens, yeah," Prescott said after the second organized team activity of the Cowboys' offseason program on Tuesday. "Not taking anything for granted."

He joked his teammates call him the uncle.

Prescott, who turns 32 in July, was a fourth-round pick in 2016 and started all 122 games he has played. His 2024 season was cut short after eight games because of a hamstring avulsion that required surgery.

While not cleared for full contact yet, Prescott took part in all aspects of Tuesday's OTA, taking every first-team rep in seven-on-seven drills.

"Pretty much can do it all. Feel good," Prescott said. "Yeah, I think I'm just not cleared for contact, which we've got a while for that anyways. Yeah, I'm out there in the team activities, feel good. Just trying to stay that way."

Prescott said he does not feel behind, despite the rehab work following the surgery.

"My offseason started way earlier so that's really essentially why I'm ahead," he said, "on top of working with [director of rehabilitation Britt Brown], working with this training staff and [Prescott's personal trainer] Luke [Wilson]."

Earlier in the offseason, the feeling in the organization was that Prescott would likely be limited as he returned from surgery.

"People say a lot of things about me, man," Prescott said. "I just show up and control what I can control healthy. Trying to stay healthy. Feels good. Just trying to push the energy and make sure I continue to get better."
