Dak Prescott has addressed the video that came out this week showing him getting heated with teammate Trevon Diggs and being called the B-word.
The Dallas Cowboys players appeared in footage in which Diggs is heard telling Prescott to shut his “B-A up” after getting run out on the sidelines on a play.
The video has led to widespread debate over whether or not the cornerback crossed the line. But Dak has been asked about the incident and totally played it down.
“That’s a guy that I spend a lot of time with, we’re always going back and forth,” the quarterback told FOX 4 News. “When you’re competing at a high level and you believe your side is better than the other side that’s mutual and that’s iron sharpening iron.”
“Nobody gets upset about words being said.”

While Dak might feel that way, former NFL running back LeSean McCoy sees it differently and has said he doesn’t believe the QB has the respect of his teammates, who are probably sick of him throwing games.
“I played with Michael Vick, played with Tom Brady, played with Josh Allen, played with Patrick Mahomes, nobody on the team would even fix they lips to say something like that to the quarterback,” McCoy said.
The signal-caller has attracted additional attention after promising he will not throw double-digit interceptions next season.
It might be a long year for him.
