Another limited showing Prescott (calf) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Coach Mike McCarthy laid out the plan for Prescott earlier Thursday, stating he would take part in rehab first before moving on to individual drills, at which point the Cowboys would assess to see if he was fit for some team work, according to Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site. Prescott proceeded to do just that, including change of direction and holding a ball after dropping back from center, per Todd Archer of ESPN.com. Afterward, Prescott acknowledged to Watkins that it isn't his decision whether he'll be able to play through a strained right calf Sunday in Minnesota. Such a call will be a collaboration between the coaching, training and medical staffs, but if Prescott isn't able to suit up Cooper Rush will be prepared to start under center for Dallas.

Calf strain limits Cowboys' Prescott as Vikings game looms
Dak Prescott has been limited in practice with a right calf strain as the Dallas Cowboys prepare to visit the Minnesota VikingsOCTOBER 27, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Back in limited capacity Prescott (calf) officially was limited at Wednesday's practice, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Impact As expected, Prescott's practice reps were capped coming off the Cowboys' Week 7 bye, which was well-timed after he strained his right calf on his game-winning TD toss to CeeDee Lamb in the Week 6 win at New England. During the portion of Wednesday's session open to the media, Prescott focused on rehab work before joining individual drills, where his activity included handoffs and passes during routes on air, per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News. Meanwhile, backup QB Cooper Rush handled most of the first-team reps. Lamb himself told Gehlken that Prescott was "the same Dak" and looked "great. In and out of his drops. ... To me, he looks perfectly fine." Wednesday was the first test in Prescott's quest to miss no time as a result of the calf injury, and he'll have two more practices to log a full session before Dallas gives him a designation or outright clears him to play Sunday in Minnesota.

Limited to individual drills Prescott (calf) is scheduled for individual drills Wednesday, while backup quarterback Cooper Rush will take more first-team reps in practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning...
Impact Coach Mike McCarthy said he wants to make sure Rush is ready to play, even though Prescott has "improved every day" since straining his calf at the very end of the Week 6 win over New England. A bye week helped his chances to avoid a missed game, and McCarthy did leave the door open for Prescott to jump in for some team work later in Wednesday's practice if everything goes well with individual drills. Either way, Prescott is expected to be listed as a limited participant Wednesday afternoon when the Cowboys release their first injury report for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
