Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott knows he needs to curb the turnovers in 2023 after leading the NFL with a career-high 15 interceptions in 2022. 

Playing for a squad nicknamed "America’s Team" means eyes across the country are all over the Cowboys no matter when they’re playing, making every interception feel like three at once.

After looking at film and recapping what he did last season, Prescott knows that number will be different this year.

"I won’t have 10 interceptions this year," Prescott said boldly to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Prescott didn’t want to throw his wide receivers under the bus, but he does believe that some of his interceptions last year were the result of drops. 

"I know who I am, and you can go back and take away half of those off drops," Prescott explained. "I'm not saying it's on the receiver, but if you cut that in half then we start talking about those, nobody is talking about it."

The exact number is four, per NFL.com, and there were moments where Dallas receivers did get their hands on the ball before it was eventually picked off. 

Though that’s how the game sometimes goes. Whether the ball slips through a receiver's hands, or a receiver falls down with or without contact on a route, interceptions happen. 

COWBOYS' DAK PRESCOTT ENTERING 8TH NFL SEASON WITH ‘SENSE OF URGENCY’

When you’re on "America’s Team" though, Prescott understands that every interception matters more.

"We are a talking point," he said. "As you find something to talk about, that’s the first thing to go to."

Prescott has been the focal point since he was named the team’s starter in 2016 as a rookie, bringing Dallas to a 13-3 record in 16 games. He’s had a losing record just once in his career, and has been a very proficient starting quarterback in one of the league’s tougher divisions in the NFC East.

However, Cowboys fans don’t care about the regular season at this point. 

Yes, a good record is needed to make the playoffs, but when the last Super Bowl won by the franchise came in 1995, the organization and its fan base are itching for another Vince Lombardi Trophy in the building. 

Prescott is just 2-4 in his playoff career, which includes a win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and a loss to the San Francisco 49ers last season. Prescott threw two interceptions to one touchdown in the 19-12 loss to San Fran.

Heading into 2023, Prescott is confident that the Cowboys will flourish with Mike McCarthy calling plays now that Kellen Moore, the team’s offensive coordinator last season, is with the Los Angeles Chargers. 

"Mike does an amazing job with those [receivers]. They know where to be, why to be, when they're getting looked at. That's going to be a big jump," Prescott said. 

If Prescott can limit his turnovers and continue finding the end zone like he has for years now, perhaps the Cowboys can finally achieve that playoff run the team desperately wants. 

You can bet Cowboys fans – and the rest of the NFL for that matter – will be keeping a close eye on that interception total as the season goes on.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., expressed outrage over new revelations that recently-retired ex-NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci is privy to a taxpayer-reimbursed security detail.

Documents obtained by "Jesse Watters Primetime" from the U.S. Marshals Service through a request described how the marshals took over that responsibility from the Department of Health & Human Services at the beginning of 2023.

Paul sent a letter to HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra in June requesting additional details about Fauci's current employment status and special taxpayer-funded benefits.

On "Jesse Watters Primetime," host Jesse Watters said a source's tip led to a FOIA request to the U.S. Marshals that revealed the security detail for Fauci.

Watters reported the documents also stated Fauci's perks include limousine transportation.

Paul said he also was told Fauci still has a detail, and that he questioned HHS about it.

"HHS actually came back to us and said they haven't been paying for it since January. But then we discovered that Fox did a Freedom of Information Act and a judge forced them to say that, well, while HHS wasn't directly funding it, the U.S. Marshals were funding it," he said.

Paul said the federal officials told him they weren't directly paying for it, but that, in the senator's words, "somebody else is doing it and then we're reimbursing them."

"So it's a terrible example of the government lying to its representatives and to the people. But also, why is a retired guy, the only retired official I know of that gets this kind of treatment is a former president," Paul added.

"So I have no idea why this bureaucrat still has a limo driver security detail."

Paul wondered aloud if Fauci also gets pro bono legal representation in retirement as well, quipping the doctor may need it one day.

The senator said Fauci's wealth increased 30% during the pandemic, and that he should be able to afford his own security without expending taxpayer funds.

By the end of his 54-year career in the bureaucracy, Fauci rose to become the highest-paid federal official.

The doctor and the senator also often sparred while he was at NIAID, with Paul once asking if he wished to revise past testimony to Congress based on new revelations at the time, while Fauci notably once declared the Kentuckian – who is a doctor of ophthalmology – had "no idea what he was talking about" when it came to his medical analysis of the coronavirus.

Fauci has since been replaced at NIAID in an acting capacity by Dr. Hugh Auchincloss, an immunologist and father of Rep. Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass.
