The Cowboys' Mike McCarthy will need a job. The Jets' Aaron Rodgers will need a coach. Let the speculation ensue.

The current trajectory of the Dallas Cowboys’ season suggests there were already scarce reasons for Dak Prescott to rush back from injury, but on Wednesday his head coach emphasized the significance of the quarterback’s next steps anyway.

The Dallas Cowboys suffered a huge loss two weeks ago when Dak Prescott suffered a torn hamstring against the Atlanta Falcons. The injury is believed to be season-ending for Prescott, who recently became the NFL's highest-paid player of all time.

The first domino that led to Dallas Cowboys three-time All-Pro Micah Parsonsdeciding to "just eat the fine" and skip NFL-mandated media sessions was Parsons' attempt to say he cared more about the future of Hall of Fame right guard Zack Martin than head coach Mike McCarthy and his coaching future.

The Cowboys owner also gave his evaluation of Cooper Rush and Trey Lance after their outings against the Eagles.

Despite swirling discussions about his future and linebacker Micah Parsons' heartfelt comments following last Sunday's loss, Dallas Cowboys right guard Zack Martin remains steadfast in his commitment to the team and the pursuit of victory.
