**Will Grier Rejoins Dallas Cowboys Amid Dak Prescott's Injury Woes**

A change is coming for the Dallas Cowboys as they deal with the fallout from Dak Prescott's hamstring injury. Prescott flew to New York on Monday to consult a specialist about his partially-torn hamstring, with team doctors predicting a potential four-month recovery period if surgery is required. This would prematurely end Prescott's season. Should he opt against surgery, there is a slim chance he could return in six weeks, but the current outlook appears bleak.

In the face of this setback, Cooper Rush took over at quarterback in the recent game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Unfortunately, his performance left much to be desired, completing only 13 of 23 passes for a mere 45 yards and losing possession twice via fumbles. This has led to a clamor among fans for Trey Lance to start; however, head coach Mike McCarthy announced that Rush will continue as the starter in their upcoming Monday Night Football matchup against the Houston Texans. Additionally, McCarthy revealed that the Cowboys are in the process of bringing another quarterback onto the roster.

In a heartening turn of events, the Cowboys are reportedly signing Will Grier to the practice squad. Grier, a familiar face to fans, played for Dallas during the 2021 and 2022 seasons and left a memorable mark in 2023's preseason finale. In that game, Grier showcased his talent by throwing for 305 yards and scoring four touchdowns—two passing and two rushing—even after being informed he wouldn’t make the team due to the acquisition of Lance.

Grier's return is expected to boost the team’s morale, especially for Prescott, with whom he shares a strong bond. Prescott’s comments after Grier’s pre-season finale illuminated this relationship. "Honestly right now, my heart and my mind is with Will," Prescott said. "Love that guy to death over there. Plays his ass off, comes in, prepares the right way each and every day."

Given the circumstances and Prescott's rehabilitation likely keeping him away from the team, Grier's re-signing is seen as a positive move for the Cowboys. At age 29, Grier brings veteran experience and a sense of familiarity, making him an ideal addition to support the team during this challenging period.
