Dak Prescott's health takes center stage before Cowboys' training camp

Dak Prescott is back and ready to rock it for another season. The Dallas Cowboys need him healthy. That's a given. It's also one of the biggest factors for this team heading into training camp.

Training camp starts on Wednesday. Prescott, of course, is expected to be there, along with all the other Cowboys stars.

Ahead of training camp, Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News offered up 20 predictions for the Cowboys in training camp. One directly has to do with Prescott, and it's perhaps the most interesting.

Dak Prescott has to stay healthy, and he likely will, Cowboys beat reporter says

Hoyt names Prescott's health one of the biggest question marks for this team. But he also has a good projection.

"The Cowboys believe they could have one of the best offenses in the NFL," Hoyt says. "For that to happen, Prescott needs to stay healthy. 

"My prediction: Prescott stays healthy for all of camp."

On another bright note, Hoyt also said that he believes training camp will be totally free of drama for once.

"For the first time in a long time, yes," he says. "It appears that the Cowboys are on their way for a drama-free training camp, at least from a contract standpoint.

"My prediction: Everything will be kumbaya. Then next year the drama can resume." 

Those are both great predictions, and it should have Cowboys fans excited for what's ahead. Just a few more days and we'll get to see this team back in action, even if it's just training camp.
