Packers’ Jaire Alexander Trolls Cowboys’ Dak Prescott With ‘Top QBs’ Comment

Is Dallas’s Dak Prescott a top QB? The Green Bay Packers cornerback certainly thinks so, but not how you’d expect.

In this story:

Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander ranks Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott among the top at his position in the NFL, just not in the way one might expect. 

The Packers defeated the Cowboys, 48—32, in a wild-card round clash Sunday night in Arlington, Texas, and Alexander, who picked off Prescott in the first quarter to help set up a Green Bay touchdown, left his impact on the game. 

After the contest, Alexander spoke about the Cowboys QB, saying that he is now “among my top QBs.”

Why?

Because he’s now thrown multiple interceptions to Alexander, per Carmen Vitali of Fox Sports. 

It was an expert troll job by Alexander. If you only heard the last bit of the Packers star’s comments, you would think he had just paid Prescott the ultimate compliment. But it was anything but. 

Alexander clearly loves playing against the Cowboys signal-caller. He also intercepted Prescott in Green Bay’s 34–24 regular-season win over the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on Oct. 6, 2019.
