DALLAS Cowboys star quarterback Dak Prescott led his team to a Sunday Night Football victory, but he was on the wrong side of history.
The NFL Pro Bowler was part of an unusual feat in two different days as he also guided Dallas to a primetime 20-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 5.

Before the Sunday night game, a thunderstorm hit Pittsburgh which caused the contest to be delayed.
The originally scheduled start time of 8:20 pm Eastern was pushed to a start time of 9:45 pm.
Prescott finished the contest with 352 passing yards and two touchdowns along with two interceptions.
The Cowboys star’s first touchdown and interception took place on Sunday.
Due to the weather delay, Prescott’s second interception happened in the early hours of Monday.
He became the first quarterback to throw an interception on two different days of the same game week, causing fans to say he achieved a record “that’ll never be seen again.”
Fortunately for Prescott, he was on the right side of history in the touchdown department.
He also threw a touchdown pass on two different days in the same game – the first to ever accomplish that feat.
Prescott’s first touchdown came early in the fourth quarter which gave Dallas the lead.
The second score was the game-winner with 20 seconds remaining.
Prescott finished the night by completing 29 of 42 passes for 352 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions.
He also had a fumble and his second interception almost cost the Cowboys the victory.
The first interception was also not in the vicinity of his intended target, CeeDee Lamb, and was placed into the arms of cornerback Donte Jackson.
Prescott’s pass caused Lamb to seem disappointed and was seen mouthing words to his quarterback.

The pass was nowhere near the star wideout and landed right in the arms of cornerback Donte Jackson.
The game ended close to 1 am which was the longest day of NFL football in history.
Still, Dallas improved to 3-2 for the season while the Steelers now have the same record.
The Cowboys will face the Detroit Lions in Week 6.
And Pittsburgh will take on the Las Vegas Raiders next Sunday.
