For the second day in a row, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott didn't throw a pass at practice due to his ailing throwing shoulder. Nonetheless, Prescott isn't concerned about his availability for Sunday's pivotal divisional showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles.

"I'll be good to go on Sunday," Prescott told reporters, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The star pivot injured his shoulder during Dallas' Week 15 game against the Los Angeles Rams. The status of Prescott's throwing arm has drawn much consternation considering the importance of Sunday's game.

The Cowboys and Eagles are tied atop the NFC East standings with matching 7-7 records and two games left in the season to qualify for the playoffs. Dallas currently owns the tiebreaker with its head-to-head victory over Philadelphia in Week 7.

The Cowboys will win the division with a victory over their heated rivals Sunday.

"This is what it's about. This is what you play this game for," Prescott said, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "When I was a little boy and dreamed of being the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, these are the situations I thought about being in."
