Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Prescott will play in the team's regular-season finale on the road against the Giants on Sunday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Dallas currently sits at a 7-8-1 record and would finish the 2025 campaign at .500 with a win over New York in Week 18, giving Prescott something to play for even with the team already eliminated from playoff contention. The 32-year-old signal-caller has operated as one of the NFL's most efficient quarterbacks down the stretch, as he's averaging over 300 passing yards per game across seven appearances since the Cowboys' bye in Week 10, with 13 passing touchdowns and just four interceptions in that span.

Prescott completed 19 of 37 passes for 307 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys' 30-23 win over the Commanders on Christmas Day. He added 24 rushing yards on four carries.

For the second straight week, Dallas did most of its damage early, as Prescott led the team on four scoring drives in the first half before the Cowboys were held to just two field goals after halftime. Prescott is having a strong finish to the season, topping 300 passing yards in four of the last six games and throwing multiple TDs in four of the six as well, and his second touchdown toss Thursday gave him his fourth career 30-TD campaign. The Cowboys have a shot at finishing with a .500 record, which might be enough incentive to keep Prescott under center in Week 18 against the Giants.

Prescott completed 21 of 30 passes for 244 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Chargers. He added 14 rushing yards on two carries.

The veteran quarterback led the Cowboys to points on their first three drives, hitting Ryan Flournoy (knee) for a TD in the first quarter and finding George Pickens for a 38-yard score in the second, but the Chargers defense shut him down the rest of the way. With Dallas already eliminated from the playoffs, Joe Milton took over at QB for the team's final two possessions, and he could sub in for Prescott more frequently over the final two weeks. Prescott will still take a strong 28:10 TD:INT on the season into a Week 17 clash with the Commanders.

Gainwell rushed the ball seven times for 26 yards in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Browns. He added three receptions on four targets for 12 yards.

The entire Steelers' offense was inefficient, and Gainwell's production similarly suffered. Positively, he maintained his role as Pittsburgh's primary pass catcher out of the backfield and ended the game with only two touches fewer than Jaylen Warren. However, Gainwell was held to his fewest yards from scrimmage since Week 10 heading into a pivotal Week 18 showdown with the Ravens that will decide the AFC North.

Gainwell rushed the ball nine times for 50 yards and added five receptions for 78 yards and a touchdown on seven targets in Sunday's 29-24 win over the Lions.

Gainwell maintained his key role as a pass catcher in the Pittsburgh offense, finishing second on the team in targets. The Lions did a good job containing him for most of the game, though Gainwell managed an improbable 45-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half, when he made the initial catch from the ground before popping up without being touched to reach the end zone. While overshadowed by Jaylen Warren (14 carries for 143 yards and two scores) on the ground, Gainwell also chipped in a long rush of 18 yards to help him reach 100 yards from scrimmage for the third time in his last five games. He's also reached the end zone twice in that span.

Flowers recorded four receptions on five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 41-24 win over the Packers.

The Ravens took to the air only 20 times and limited most of those attempts to short areas of the field. That held back all of their pass catchers, though Flowers made the most of his opportunity to lead the team in receptions and yards. He also found the end zone for the third straight game after making a 10-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter.

Flowers recorded seven receptions on seven targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He added one rush for 18 yards and one touchdown.

Flowers had one of his better showings of the season, as he topped 100 yards from scrimmage for only the third time in 15 games. He was particularly involved as a pass catcher early in the contest -- before Lamar Jackson exited with a back injury -- logging receptions of 19 and 18 yards on Baltimore's first possession before chipping in a 14-yard catch on the team's second drive. Flowers also found the end zone for the second consecutive game on a 14-yard end-around late in the third quarter. Despite turning in one of his more productive games of the season, Flowers' effort was overshadowed by a lost fumble late in the game that helped New England clinch the win.
