The Dallas Cowboys are striving to surround Dak Prescott with talented players for the 2023 NFL season. However, the Detroit Lions have disrupted their plans by stealing a wide receiver that the NFC East team wanted to support their quarterback.

Dak Prescott’s tenure with the Cowboys have not been the best. Even though he’s seen as the quarterback who will finally return a Vince Lombardi trophy to Dallas, he has not been able to succeed in the Playoffs to even get near a Super Bowl.

The first defeat of the 2023 NFL season has arrived for the Dallas Cowboys. Even though they were trying to add a new wide receiver to help Dak Prescott, the Lions got in their way and stole their target.
