Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will undergo surgery on a hamstring and miss the rest of the season, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said Tuesday.

Prescott partially tore a hamstring in the second half of Dallas’ Week 9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He will have surgery Wednesday.

“His prognosis is wonderful. It just means we’re not going to have him for the rest of the year,” Jones said during his weekly radio appearance on Dallas station 105.3 The FAN.

Prescott had struggled this season.

In eight games, he threw for 1,978 yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions. His passer rating of 86.0 is a career low, as well as his 1.38-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. His 64.7% completion percentage is also the second-worst mark of his career.
