Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has taken aim at the media for videotaping his mansion being demolished. Prescott demolished his $3 million North Texas mansion as he plans on building a new one on the property.
The quarterback ripped the media for bringing attention to it. He claimed it was an invasion of privacy, as people now know what his house looked like and where he lives.
“I think it’s crazy the coverage that it got. Just being frank, trying to keep my personal life my personal life, build a home or a place or have a property that, you know, I’m about to raise a daughter and a family there,” Prescott told reporters.
“I truly don’t appreciate the drones, the extra videos, and, honestly, the conversation of it. I’m super blessed to be able to, at this point, build what I want, so enough said.”
Prescott bought the home in 2019, and it’s valued at just over $3 million, according to Collin County Appraisal District records. Prescott added a tennis court in 2023 to complement the turf football field he installed in 2020, as well as a small pond and a golf course with bunkers.
The Dallas Cowboys are coming off a comeback 20-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road. Dallas hosts the Detroit Lions on Sunday.
The Cowboys enter the game at home as 3-point underdogs but Prescott has confidence in his team that they will pull off the upset and enter their bye week on a winning note.
“We’re going on a bye week next. So, we’re going to get this win and then go enjoy the bye. Then, we’ll figure it after that,” Prescott said, via Bolavip.
“There was a flag missed before that on our side that was called the wrong way. I expect them to come out with same personality of the same team that they’ve been. It’s a defense that we’re familiar with because we had played them in the last few seasons.”
This season, Prescott is 125-for-191 for 1,424 yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions. Prescott has led Dallas to a 3-2 record and is second in the NFC East.
