It's a stunning upset over teammate running back Ezekiel Elliott. A fourth-round pick, Prescott led Dallas to a 13-win season as a rookie starter, throwing for 3,667 yards, 23 touchdowns, and four interceptions, rushing for an additional 282 yards and six touchdowns. With Dallas moving on from Tony Romo this offseason, Prescott has firmly established himself as the Cowboys' franchise quarterback.
