Dak Prescott has taken a lot of criticism as the Cowboys quarterback, as such a high-profile position comes with all kinds of scrutiny. The veteran tends to handle that attention well, though, and he even turned it into an advertisement for an important product.
Prescott revealed a commercial Friday morning for the Colorectal Cancer Alliance’s Lead From Behind campaign, which encourages people to get screened using the non-invasive Cologuard at-home kit. The commercial is predicated on the idea that Prescott takes a lot of heat in his job.
“As a professional quarterback, I get a lot of s---,” Prescott says to open the ad. “And I get it, when you’re not a fan of something, s—ing on it can make you feel good. But what if I told you that now, it can do some good, too?”
