Dak Prescott is usually not one to appear in non-football media. After all, his current focus is on giving the Dallas Cowboys their first Super Bowl title since the era of the Triplets.
And yet on Tuesday, the quarterback did appear in a non-football video as he starred alongside Tom Hardy in a promo for Venom: The Last Dance. In the clip, the Cowboys QB and the British actor, who is "carrying" the Venom symbiote on his back are traversing the desert when they stumble upon a horse:
Reaction to Prescott's performance was mixed:

"I've seen enough give dak prescott an oscar"
"What the f*ck is this s**t?"
"We got dak being a part of the mcu before gta 6," another fan quipped.
More of it can be seen below:
"I love this," one praised.
"Plot twist, this scene is the actual scene in the movie," one "predicted".
"This is… Unexpected," another marveled.
Dak Prescott involved in launch of new tequila brand
When one thinks of Dak Prescott, "brand investor" is not one of the roles expected of him. But on Monday, he did get to see his investment realized.
Spanish liquor company Zamora, whose American branch is headquartered in Dallas (where Dak currently plays and resides), announced the launch of a new luxury tequila brand called Volteo. It took two years of development between it and the Casa del Piedra distillery and was also aided by input from the quarterback.
Matt Appleby, CEO of Zamora Company USA, said:
“Tequila Volteo was created to elevate the luxury tequila category by challenging the status quo and honoring our founder Dak’s vision to craft a spirit of uncompromising standards. The same strength of character that defines Dak’s purpose in life — honesty, integrity, and tireless work — is what goes into crafting Tequila Volteo.”
He continued, noting Prescott's input in the process:
“As an athlete, Dak is very thoughtful about what he eats and drinks, so when we began developing this tequila with him, he was insistent that we keep it clean and natural, with no sugar or other additives — and that’s exactly what we did.”
A portion of Volteo's profits will be redirected to Prescott's Faith Fight Finish Foundation, which he founded in 2018 in honor his mother, who died of colon cancer five years prior; and whose work honors his late elder brother Jace, who committed suicide in 2020.
