Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott reacted to the death of Mississippi State football player Sam Westmoreland on Thursday.
The Dallas standout played at Mississippi State from 2011–15 and sent his condolences to his former team and school.
“My condolences go to his family and the Mississippi State program,” Prescott said, via Jori Epstein of Yahoo! Sports. “It’s sad. Any time a life is gone it’s a sad moment, especially such a young life. A freshman. The message for the team is to lock arms and understand we got to love each other. We never know when that receipt comes. Be where your feet are. Focus in on the moments. Love the people around you and don’t take anything for granted. Condolences and prayers with them.”
