"Bro Wanna Be Jalen Hurts So Bad": Reacting to Dak Prescott's Fresh Look Straight From the Barbershop, Fans Disapprove Cowboys QB

Attention Cowboys Nation, Dak Prescott has a new look! As the offseason kicks off, NFL athletes wind down and take a breather from their hectic schedules and training. Thus, new investments, new relationships, and new looks are not uncommon sightings. Prescott, after another debilitating outing in the postseason, went to the barbershop to find a new look. And as soon as it hit social media, there was no turning back. The trolls were quick with their fingers. So, let’s look at the look from Prescott:

Abel the Barber’s IG account proudly posted the picture with Dak showing his freshest new look. But not all fans were impressed. In fact, most of the people were quick to make ‘funny’ remarks on the post. Some said that he’s trying to look like Jalen Hurts, while others just brought up his playoff failures — not letting the QB get a moment of relief. Yes, the playoff performance by Prescott and the Cowboys has been historically terrible over a long time, but at the same time, maybe his getting a haircut is hardly related to that.
