Dak Prescott’s Girlfriend Reacts To His Emotional Interview
Dallas Cowboys star quarterback Dak Prescott opened up about his mental health in an interview with ESPN’s Sage Steele.
Prescott, who’s close to fully recovered from his serious leg injury suffered against the Giants in 2020, has gone through a lot over the past year-plus.
The Cowboys quarterback lost his brother, Jace, to suicide earlier in 2020.
Prescott told the ESPN host that he “was going through depression [and] anxiety” for much of last year “because I was isolated” and “wasn’t able to be around the people that I wanted to.”
The Cowboys quarterback is one of many people who struggled with mental health throughout the pandemic. Prescott opened up about his own struggles in an interview with the longtime ESPN host.
Mental health. So thankful to @dak for “going there” & openly talking about his struggle. THAT defines courage. This is an excerpt from my convo with Dak—the first guest on my soon-to-debut new show, “Up Close with Sage Steele” on @ESPNPlus @dallascowboys pic.twitter.com/LZZt3TQDK2
