Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott didn’t use the shortest route to the end zone in the fourth quarter Thursday, but he still found his ultimate destination.
Just ridiculous, @Dak.
Another #DallasCowboys touchdown!

Prescott eluded one tackle by scrambling to his left, then broke back to his right and somersaulted into the end zone for a 5-yard score against the Washington Redskins.
According to NFL Next Gen Stats, Prescott actually covered 34.4 yards on the run. It was the second-most yards on any rushing touchdown in Prescott’s career. The most came on Thanksgiving in 2016 against the Redskins, when he ran 37.0 yards on a 6-yard TD run.
Prescott also had a big game with his arm as he became the first Cowboys quarterback with two touchdown passes of at least 40 yards in a single quarter since Tony Romo had two in Week 8 of the 2013 season against the Detroit Lions.
