Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had an outstanding performance on Thanksgiving Day against the Commanders, throwing for 221 yards and 2 touchdowns in the first half. The Cowboys, led by Prescott, strategically hid turkey legs in the Salvation Army buckets as part of their touchdown celebration. The idea quickly caught on within the team, and they planned to feast on the turkey legs during a comfortable victory. The Cowboys eventually won the game, with Prescott throwing a total of 4 touchdowns. Coach Mike McCarthy had set a condition that the game had to be well out of hand for the turkey leg celebration to take place. The planned celebration was intricately organized days ahead of the game, with the Cowboys asking permission from McCarthy. The Cowboys' creative touchdown celebration drew attention and became a dominant story from the Thanksgiving Day game.
