And the Cowboys luminaries who took the field in the now-annual flag football interconference showdown turned in some of the biggest highlights of night as the NFC scored the final 30 points of the contest to emerge with a come-from-behind 66-52 victory and seal their fourth straight win over the AFC in the new format.

Prescott's hookup with wide receiver CeeDee Lamb at the end of the second quarter went nearly the full length of the field and narrowed the gap just before halftime.
Prescott later found KaVontae Turpin on a trick play that helped the NFC tie things up at 52 as they mounted their comeback bid. And then a few minutes later, Prescott connected with George Pickens to reclaim the lead.
Hurts and Lamb, the former college roommates and teammates from Oklahoma, dialed up the punctuating touchdown with just over a minute to play.
The NFC notched the win, but it was the Cowboys who played the biggest part, with four players- Ferguson, Turpin, Lamb, and Pickens- combining for five touchdowns and Prescott throwing for four.

The soon-to-be 25-year-old enjoyed career highs in his first season in Dallas, and the pending free agent admitted this week that his success in 2025 likely gave a boost to his coming contract negotiations.
"I feel like, if anything, it went up," Pickens said. "But me personally, my value is just a playmaker type of guy. I feel like any team or wherever I play- I can be playing in Canada- I just want them to know that I'm definitely a playmaker."
