The two-time Pro Bowl quarterback opened up about his own experience navigating loss, sharing his story about losing loved ones and how he has carried that grief over the years.
And that resonance wasn't accidental. Prescott lost his mother Peggy to colon cancer in Nov. 2013 while he was a sophomore quarterback at Mississippi State. He later lost his brother Jace, who died at age 31 in April 2020.
Because he’s lived through it, his conversation with the Casillas family sounds less like a script and more like someone who has spent years figuring out how to carry that weight.
Tony’s post set off a wave of responses from fans who felt that the 32-year-old was the perfect person to share that meaningful moment with the grieving former NFL star and his son.
"Dak is the real deal. Superstar of a person. Glad he's our QB," one fan wrote.
Another added, "Dak gets a lot of sh-t on the field. Off the field there is no one better. My quarterback."
A third simply replied, "That is who Dak is. Condolences to you and family."
The fourth emotional fan penned, "Love my QB. Sending love to you and your family. Grief is the worst."
A random X user remarked, "That and many other reasons I'm proud he's a Cowboy! Lost my wife 5 years ago…"
Prescott leads an offense that topped the NFL in passing last season. The real problem has been the defense, which gave up 30.1 points per game in 2025.
Jerry Jones tried to fix this over the offseason by trading for edge rusher Rashan Gary and signing veterans like Jalen Thompson and Cobie Durant. He also used the draft to bring in young talent like Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence.
Heading into 2026, Dallas' success depends entirely on whether this rebuilt defense can actually stop anyone.
