Prescott finished QB5 in total fantasy points and QB7 per game in 2025. Dallas fueled that with elite volume, ranking first in plays per game and top three in pass attempts and yards. That mix of volume and efficiency keeps him in the QB1 mix for 2026.

Prescott played the full season in 2025, throwing for 4,552 yards, 30 TDs, and 10 INTs, the second-highest passing total of his career. He added 177 rushing yards and 2 TDs.
Prescott finished:
The volume drove Prescott’s production. He ranked:
Dallas also gave him one of the league’s best volume environments, ranking third in plays per game (65.9) with a 58.5% pass rate.
Prescott’s efficiency backed up the fantasy production.
Among 42 qualified QBs, he ranked:
His PFF profile proved especially strong:
Prescott combined strong efficiency with opportunity. This profile gives him a sturdy QB1 floor with top-five weeks whenever the TDs swing his way.
He also did not collapse when CeeDee Lamb missed three games with a high ankle sprain.
With Lamb:
Without Lamb:
That does not mean Prescott’s better without Lamb. It does show that his 2025 production was not tied to one WR, because Dallas had enough volume, structure, and talent to keep him productive.
The Cowboys offense under HC Brian Schottenheimer provided a strong environment for fantasy production.
They ranked:
Brian Schottenheimer’s Dallas offenses have played quickly over the past two seasons after playing slow :
The offense leaned a little more toward the run in 2025 …
The neutral pass rate stayed consistent at 57.7% in both seasons, though. That suggests the dip in pass rate was due to specific game environments rather than a shift in philosophy. RB Javonte Williams also provided a steadier rushing option than the 2024 squad found.
The pace means Prescott doesn’t need to be hyper-efficient to remain a fantasy starter.
The O-line was more mixed. Dallas ranked 30th in PFF pass-block grade, but third in adjusted sack rate and 19th in ESPN pass-block win rate. Prescott took 31 sacks, with a 4.7% sack rate that ranked 12th.
The OL should be more consistent in 2026 with all starters returning.
WR George Pickens added a downfield element in 2025, and Prescott gets him back alongside Lamb and TE Jake Ferguson.
The Cowboys also return some of their receiving depth:
The rest of the offense remains largely intact. RB Javonte Williams returns as the starter after signing a three-year extension, with Malik Davis and Jaydon Blue returning as depth.
Schottenheimer’s offense has been fantasy-friendly for Prescott.
Dallas ranked:
Dallas wasn’t purely pass-happy, but the pace still pushed Prescott near the top of the league in dropbacks and attempts.
Prescott’s offense and weapons give him a strong ceiling case.
That combination could keep him in the top-7 mix among fantasy QBs.
He already finished QB6 in total points and QB3 in expected points per game last year. Similar efficiency and offensive pace in 2026 could repeat those numbers.
If last year’s efficiency and pace slip, Prescott carries more risk.
Prescott’s fantasy value depends heavily on:
If Dallas slows down or becomes more run-leaning near the goal line, Prescott could settle closer to QB2 territory.

Dak Prescott Pulled from Season Finale
Dak Prescott Pulled from Season Finale
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott didn’t play all of Week 18’s loss to the Giants. Dallas exited the postseason picture, influencing the decision to sit Prescott after one half. George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb each left early, too. Both guys finished with a 45% snap share.
Dak Prescott Might Not Play All Of Week 18
Dak Prescott Might Not Play All Of Week 18
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones suggested Tuesday that QB Dak Prescott might not play all of this weekend's finale vs. the Giants. "We're gonna start Dak," Jones said. "How we use Dak, let's make that part of the gameplan that we won't talk about." Dallas has nothing to play for in this one and might want to get a look at QB Joe Milton. It's worth noting, though, that Prescott currently leads Rams QB Matt Stafford by 34 passing yards for the league lead. (Stafford is also a candidate to sit at least some of Week 18.) We'll look for any further updates on the Cowboys' plans this weekend. But Prescott -- as well as WRs CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens -- carry more risk than usual.
Dak Prescott Jumps Into Top 5 with Second-Biggest Fantasy Day
Dak Prescott Jumps Into Top 5 with Second-Biggest Fantasy Day
Dallas' offense started sluggishly in Sunday's win over the Eagles, failing to cross the 50-yard line until its third possession and fumbling that one away. Philadelphia jumped to a 21-0 lead before the middle of the second quarter, and QB Dak Prescott followed that third enemy score by throwing an INT into the end zone. But he rebounded big time from there to rack up 354 yards, 2 TDs and a rushing score. The game finished with his second-best fantasy score of the season and the third-best among QBs for the week (with Monday night's game left to go). Prescott now ranks among the top 5 per-game scorers at the position for the season (depending on your format).
