The Dallas Cowboys will play a Christmas Day game on Netflix this week, but they have been a part of another streaming service for a few weeks now.
In case you were unaware the in-season version of Hard Knocks has been covering the NFC East (yes the entire division) for the last few weeks which means that the Cowboys have gotten some air time on HBO and HBO Max. It has been interesting to see some behind-the-scenes footage over the past few games, but obviously it would have been more fun had the team
kept on winning.
The episodes drop every Tuesday and this week’s had a teaser shared on social media before it dropped. As noted it is Christmas time and in the clip in question Dak Prescott can be seen encouraging his teammates to donate for bonuses that the team’s staff will receive.
It is hard to know the exactly logistics of what is going on here obviously, but it seems that the players are adding to an overall pot that will be shared to the staff that supports them by way of bonuses. Prescott and others can be heard encouraging the group to not “be cheap” in the name of giving as much as possible.
This Cowboys season has been a disappointment, but it is impressive to see the players on the team using their financial standing to help those around them.
