Dak Prescott has decided on surgery for his torn hamstring, ending the season for the franchise quarterback of the Cowboys when their playoff hopes were already fading fast.

Owner Jerry Jones said Prescott will have the surgery Wednesday. Jones was speaking on his radio show Tuesday.

“His prognosis is wonderful,” Jones said. “It just means we’re not going to have him for the rest of the year.”

The decision comes a little more than a week after the 31-year-old Prescott injured the hamstring in a 27-21 road loss against the Falcons.
