Cowboys QB Dak Prescott says right ankle is fine
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott said there's "absolutely nothing" wrong with his right ankle. Prescott answered questions Tuesday after being spotted in a walking boot while on vacation in Mexico last week. "Honestly, I'm getting older. It's the same ankle that I snapped, and I had a nasty surgery on four years ago so a couple of hard days of training and you know, you get a little sore and you're going on a fishing trip, and you want to protect it and make sure things don't get worse," he told ESPN at his Dallas-area youth football camp. "Literally, it's absolutely nothing. People are reaching, trying to make things that they aren't. I'm getting older and have to take care of my body, have to be smart. If I can take precautions and lessen something by putting on a boot, I'll do it. Sorry that I caused such a worry." Prescott, 30, sustained a season-ending injury to the ankle in Week 5 of the 2020 season. Last season, he made his third Pro Bowl and topped the NFL with 36 touchdown passes. Prescott is entering the final year of his contract and is set to earn $29 million this season. He said he is letting his agent handle contract talks and focusing on the start of training camp on July 25. "Day One of training camp, my mind flips to obviously helping my team and doing everything I can within the organization and on the football field to make sure I'm my best and everyone around me is there best and all that will take care of itself like it always has," he said. Prescott owns a 73-41 record as the Cowboys' starting quarterback since 2016. He has completed 67.0 percent of his passes for 29,459 yards with 202 touchdowns and 74 interceptions. He is 2-5 in the playoffs. --Field Level Media.

OK State's Ollie Gordon won't miss any games after arrest

Gundy said that any punishment for Gordon, the 2023 Doak Walker Award winner as the nation's top running back, will be handled internally. Gordon, 20, was arrested on June 30 in Oklahoma on suspicion of DUI and speeding charges. Gundy said he brought Gordon to the Big 12 media day on Tuesday in Las Vegas so he could be accountable for his actions. "I am deeply sorry for the actions that led to my arrest on June 30th," Gordon posted on X on Monday. "I sincerely apologize to my family, everyone in our program, including our players, Coach Gundy, the staff, Oklahoma State University and our fans. "Regardless of the outcome of this pending investigation, I did not uphold the values I have for myself and the values of the OSU football program. I am committed to learning and growing from this mistake and I will work to earn back the trust of those who I have disappointed. Thank you." Police said Gordon was pulled over on Interstate 35 near Moore, Okla., after being clocked at 82 mph and swerving in and out of traffic lanes. An Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper detected "an odor associated with an alcoholic beverage" coming from the vehicle, according to the incident report. Police also found two bottles of liquor in the vehicle. Gordon was taken to Cleveland County Jail after a breath test revealed a 0.11 blood alcohol content, over the legal limit for an adult younger than 21 years old, and also failed a second test while in custody with a 0.10 BAC. Last season, Gordon was named an All-American and the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year and finished seventh in the Heisman Trophy vote after rushing for 1,732 yards and 21 touchdowns in 14 games. --Field Level Media.
