Prescott, who is on a four-year contract making $60 million annually, completed 18 of 24 passes for just 133 yards and a touchdown. However, the 31-year-old also made rounds on social media for appearing to say a NSFW quote about the Cowboys late in the fourth quarter on the sidelines.
"We f------ suck," Prescott appeared to say, as shown on the FOX broadcast.
