Dak Prescott’s night got worse long before the final whistle.
As the Dallas Cowboys were being beaten 24-16 by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football, Prescott’s ex-fiancée, Sarah Jane Ramos, was in attendance with her two daughters, Margaret Jane and Aurora Rayne. From her VIP suite, the Sports Illustrated model posted a view of the stadium on her Instagram story and paired it with a sharp little line:
“I just hope both teams had a good time.”
Ramos didn’t stop there. She later shared a sweet photo of her two daughters enjoying a croissant, then captioned the moment with:
“A croissant a day keeps the doc away.”
On the field, Prescott finished 24 of 42 for 316 yards with 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions in the loss. The defeat brought plenty of heat down on Cowboys owner Jerry Jones as well, with Asante Samuel among those offering blunt criticism.
Ramos also found herself back in the middle of the conversation around her split from Prescott after Craig Carton weighed in on the breakup and the cheating allegations tied to it.
“Like, sweetheart, I think it sucks that you fell in love and didn't see the writing on the wall. You're dating the starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.
It's his job to cheat on you. You're not dating a firefighter.
You're not dating a plumber. You're dating the most popular guy in the state of Texas,” he had said during an episode of ‘The Craig Carton Show’.
That did not sit well with Ramos. She emailed the show on Wednesday and fired back at Carton with this message:
"Craig please! Your take was so mean and ridiculous. $350 million doesn't give you a pass on cheating.
You're either a weak man, or you're not. Get the heck out of here with that nonsense.
Ugly and weak people cheat because they don't know what to do with the attention. Period.
The end.”

Todd Bowles Sideline Scare Added Tension To A Much-Needed Bucs Win
The Buccaneers finally got the result they needed, beating the Cowboys 24-16 for their first win of the season behind rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels. It was a much-needed lift for a team that had spent the first month looking for something to stabilize around, and getting to 1-4 at least gives Tampa Bay a little breathing room heading into next weeks matchup with the Steelers.
The win came with a brief scare on the sideline when Todd Bowles was seen down on one knee and appeared to be dealing with discomfort before getting back up and saying he would be okay. For a team already trying to find its footing, even a moment like that can add tension to an afternoon that should have been about relief, and it only underscored how much the Bucs needed a cleaner, calmer path to their first victory.
