Prescott said Monday that his left, non-throwing shoulder is "fine," and he has no limitations following surgery in February, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: When the surgery was reported in early March, it was termed a "clean-up" procedure, according to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News. With his health not in question for the offseason program, Prescott now can focus on getting acquainted with a revised receiving corps that lost Amari Cooper via trade to the Browns and Cedrick Wilson in free agency to the Dolphins. At this point, CeeDee Lamb is the Cowboys' unquestioned top wide receiver, followed by Michael Gallup -- who tore his ACL in Week 17 -- newcomer James Washington and Noah Brown. As for the rest of the skill positions, Prescott has holdovers Ezekiel Elliott (knee) and Tony Pollard at running back and Dalton Schultz at tight end.
Dak Prescott Agrees to contract restructure
The Cowboys have restructured Prescott's (shoulder) contract, a move that that frees up about $15 million in salary cap space in advance of free agency, Rob Phillips of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: By converting a portion of Prescott's 2022 base salary into a signing bonus, the Cowboys gain added flexibility for free agent signings, as well as inking the team's upcoming draft class. The QB is bouncing back from an offseason clean-up procedure on his left (non-throwing) shoulder that isn't expected to impact his ability to participate in the Cowboys' offseason workouts. Meanwhile, the 28-year-old figures to be working with a re-tooled wideout corps this coming season, with Dallas expected to part ways with Amari Cooper and both Michael Gallup (knee) and Cedrick Wilson poised to become free agents.
