Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, already setting the NFL ablaze with a stellar season, added another personal milestone over the Thanksgiving weekend. Prescott and his girlfriend, Sarah Jane Ramos, shared the joyous news of expecting a baby girl through a heartwarming maternity shoot posted on Instagram.
Prescott, with his characteristic humor, attributed his exceptional on-field performance to the onset of “dad strength” following the announcement. The quarterback, who has been on a remarkable run since a Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, leads the league in expected points added per play, significantly outpacing his competitors.
Since the loss, Prescott’s statistics are nothing short of spectacular, with four 300+ yard passing games and an impressive 15:2 touchdown-to-interception ratio. His contributions have been instrumental in the Cowboys’ dominant performances, including a resounding 45-10 win over the Washington Commanders.
Prescott, expressing his excitement about the impending arrival, shared, “It’s super exciting. I wanted a little girl. Everybody knows what my mom means to me, so to be able to raise a little girl, I’m thankful.” The quarterback has been an advocate for cancer awareness and fundraising in honor of his mother, Peggy Prescott, who passed away from colon cancer in 2013.
While Prescott is tight-lipped about the chosen name for his daughter, Cowboys Nation can anticipate a new addition to the fanbase in March. As Prescott continues his MVP-caliber season, he’ll take the field next on Thursday against the Seattle Seahawks, fueled by the newfound joy of impending fatherhood.
