Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys suffered a second consecutive loss in Week 6’s edition of “Sunday Night Football,” dropping to 2-4 on the 2026 NFL season after falling to Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers 23-13.

Now, the Cowboys will look to bounce back with a Week 7 NFC East matchup, remaining on the road to take on the Jalen Hurts-less Philadelphia Eagles.

Despite Prescott’s struggles to begin the season, he has still led Dallas to 273.2 passing yards per game, good for sixth in the NFL. Through six games, the former Mississippi State quarterback has completed 163-of-246 passes for 1,639 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions, even breaking Tony Romo’s record for most passing touchdowns in team history.

Prescott has also found success away from football, partnering with numerous brands such as Spindrift and Jordan Brand. He even joined New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye as an equity holder in Athletic Brewing Company.

And in 2017, Prescott established the Faith Fight Finish Foundation, a charity tributing his late mother, Peggy, who died after a battle with colon cancer in 2013. And the foundation aims to “support families and communities and invest in the future of our youth.”

In 2023, Prescott and the Faith Fight Finish Foundation launched a youth program called PLAY, which stands for Prescott Leadership Academy of Youth. The PLAY initiative looks to inspire youth through mentor matches, guest speakers and team-building challenges.

And on Wednesday, the Faith Fight Finish Foundation revealed that Year 4 of PLAY has begun with students at Duncanville High School and North Crowley High School, both in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, joining the event at Bolder Adventure Park.

“Year 4 of PLAY is off to an adventurous start! ,” the Faith Fight Finish Foundation wrote on Instagram. “Students from Duncanville High School and North Crowley High School came together at Bolder Adventure Park to meet their mentors and kick off a new year of connection and growth. Through mentorship, PLAY helps bridge the gap between law enforcement and youth, building trust, understanding, and meaningful relationships.

“From mentor matches and lunch to an inspiring message from guest speaker @chris.l.young the day gave everyone a chance to get acquainted before taking on team-building challenges together! Thank you to our mentors for showing up for our students. Here’s to a year of building confidence, strengthening friendships, and learning from one another!”
