According to Darrelle Lincoln of Total Pro Sports:
Dak Prescott’s fourth-down touchdown pass to Jalen Tolbert with 20 seconds saved the team from going under .500 to improve the Cowboys’ record to 3-2.
It almost did not happen.
Following the game, Cowboys offensive lineman Tyler Smith detailed wide receiver Jalen Tolbert’s injury before he scored the go-ahead touchdown during the team’s 20-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football.
“Bro, it was miraculous,” Smith told reporters after the game, via Mike Leslie of WFAA Dallas. “JT literally sprained his f–king nuts – excuse me, sorry guys – sprained his nuts the play before. Then comes back, makes the game-winner. Unbelievable.”
Tolbert has been a huge piece of Dallas’ offense this year:
