“Merry Christmas from our Sleigh ♥️,” Prescott said.

Dak on Reindeer Outfit: ‘It Wasn’t My Idea But the Girlfriend Wanted to Wear It’
One day after playing reindeer, Prescott was lights out against Washington throwing for 330 yards and four touchdowns while completing more than 71% of his passes in the Cowboys’ blowout win. Prescott admitted the holiday attire was not his idea but the outfit grew on him. So much so that he even wore the costume to the Cowboys facility.
“Yeah, it wasn’t my idea but the girlfriend wanted to wear it so I wore it, and I actually wore it to the facility,” Prescott noted during his December 26 press conference. “Once I put it on, it felt good. So, I just kept it on. That was my Christmas Day outfit and yeah, I mean, just blessed. Blessed to be able to have the Christmas that I did.
“Spend time with family, friends, my brother, my father and obviously practice on Christmas is also another blessing and just being able to come out and play this game. I’m just very grateful and thankful for the holiday season.”
Natalie Helped Dak Get Through the Death of His Brother
Prescott’s brother Jace Prescott died on April 23, 2020, and it was Buffett that helped him get through his death. During an August 2020 interview with Sports Illustrated’s Greg Bishop, Prescott revealed a note that he had previously only shown to Buffett.
“Dak Prescott rises from the wooden table in his kitchen,” Bishop detailed. “It’s June, and he’s standing at a pivot point—far enough past the worst stretch to look back but not that removed, either. He strolls down the hallway to his office, returning with a single sheet of notebook paper that he saved for more than a year but has shown only to his girlfriend. The words are blue, the handwriting tidy. He holds the paper delicately by the top corners.
