Dak Prescott asks for a knife to split Offensive Rookie of the Year award with Ezekiel Elliott

Prescott also thanked the other 31 teams for passing on him.

In one of the bigger surprises at the NFL Honors on Saturday night, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott beat out teammate Ezekiel Elliott for Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Elliott went onto the stage with Prescott to accept the award. Prescott then asked if somebody had a knife, so that he and Ezekiel Elliott could cut the award in half.

If that wasn’t awesome enough, Prescott also thanked the 31 other teams in the NFL that passed up on him.

The Cowboys finished the regular season 13-3, but fell in the Divisional round of the playoffs to the Green Bay Packers in a 34-31 thriller.
