Dak Prescott’s brother, Tad Prescott, has caused a stir by randomly roasting Jalen Hurts and labeling him a “running back.” The unexpected jab sent shockwaves through the football community, leaving many fans and analysts puzzled. In a world where quarterbacks are usually each other’s biggest supporters, Tad’s bold move added a spicy twist to the rivalry.
Tad publicly criticized Hurts on an episode of “Paper Route” presented by I Am Athlete, referring to him as a “running back” in a move that stirred controversy.
The criticism quickly gained traction on social media platforms, with fans and analysts alike chiming in on the situation. Many condemned Tad Prescott’s words, labeling them as disrespectful and uncalled for.
While appearing on an episode of “Paper Route” presented by I Am Athlete, Tad was asked to rank his Top 10 quarterbacks in the league. Naturally, Dak came second only to Patrick Mahomes, but there was no room for Jalen Hurts.
When prompted on Hurts, Tad responded in a vicious way: “You said quarterbacks, not running backs”. He kept a blank stare before continuing with his list, even naming 39-year-old Joe Flacco over the Eagles quarterback.
Hurts took a step back as a passer in 2023 compared to his breakout 2022, throwing too many interceptions and missing too many plays through the air. Despite that, he had another season with 600 rushing yards and double digit rushing touchdowns.
Hurts’ calm demeanor will likely result in him sweeping Prescott’s comment under the rug, but it’s definitely bulletin board material for the Eagles before their first game against Dallas in 2024.
The NFL community is shocked about Tad referring to Hurts as “running back”. In the twists and turns of this drama, one thing is clear – in the game of football and family drama, expect the unexpected.
