"One thousand percent," he said on Saturday. "Just understanding injuries and what I've been throughout my career and understanding that you don't have forever to play this game. I'm blessed for every moment that I get. Just trying to take it with a sense of urgency."

Turning 30 later this month is also giving him more of the "old guy" feeling. He is one of the more experienced guys on the roster – only a few years behind offensive tackle Tyron Smith, punter Bryan Anger and cornerback Stephon Gilmore.

"I've always felt older I guess. Just being 30 doesn't necessarily bother me," Prescott added. "Knowing that I am the old guy, going into Year 8, seeing some of the young guys, some of the rookies and seeing the difference in eight years. It's fun and challenging at times, knowing that I stay connected and stay in the now with what's cool and whatnot.
