Dallas, Texas - The Dallas Cowboys have not made an official announcement, but according to Dak Prescott, he will be back starting at quarterback on Sunday against the visiting Detroit Lions.

When asked during a press conference on Thursday if he would be starting on Sunday, Prescott responded, "I am."

He then paused briefly and said, "I think."

Though he tried walk back his slip-up, all signs point to Prescott being under center for the first time since suffering a fracture near his right thumb in the fourth quarter of a 19-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 11.

He has been medically cleared to practice and got through a full training session on Thursday for the first time since his injury.

"It's about staying where my feet are," Prescott said. "Just thankful I went out there and had a good practice. Just put my mind right where I am, and when I look up I'll be prepared ready to go for Sunday."

Prescott said he had no issues throwing and joked that he threw 140 passes – his way of saying he has no limitations.

"I did everything. I wasn't limited by any means," Prescott said. "There wasn't a pitch count. I think I threw about 140 balls, something like that. I just made that up, but there was no pitch count. I was full go."

Prescott threw 40 passes during a practice on Wednesday and also threw on the field prior to the Cowboys’ 26-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday.

That marks the only blemish on Dallas’ record since the season opener.

Cooper Rush led the Cowboys to four consecutive wins in place of Prescott, completing 61.9% of his passes for 775 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions for a 97.1 passer rating before completing 47.4% of his 38 attempts for 181 yards with a TD throw and three picks for a 37.3 rating in Week 6.

"He went out there and did everything I expected Cooper to do," Prescott said. "Understand that everybody had to raise their level and everybody is going to continue to raise their level. That is what he has done and what the team has done. Now I can come back and we can keep rolling."

Prescott, however, also struggled in Week 1, completing 48.3% of his 29 attempts for 134 yards and an average of 4.6 yards per throw with one interception and a 47.2 rating.
