Dak Prescott was signed by the Dallas Cowboys to a four-year, $160 million deal extension three years ago. The starting quarterback for the Cowboys is about to reach the last year of his deal, and neither party has indicated that they plan to part ways.
However, the Cowboys haven’t been able to convince Prescott to sign a contract for whatever reason. Alternatively, Prescott’s side can be the one putting a boundary during talks.
However, Prescott’s most recent remarks suggest that if there has been a problem, it is not his fault.
Dak Prescott criticises the Dallas Cowboys in the course of contract negotiations.
Dak Prescott will turn 31 prior to the start of the 2024 season. Coming off of his first second-team All-Pro selection, he is a three-time Pro Bowl quarterback. However, he is only 2–5 while starting in the postseason.
Nevertheless, Prescott has demonstrated his ability to perform at a high level. Before Lamar Jackson heated up ahead of the postseason, he was in the driver’s seat to win the MVP title only the previous year. Prescott nevertheless came in second in the MVP voting. Additionally, he guided the Cowboys to become the NFL’s highest-scoring offence.
However, as of yet, the Cowboys and Prescott—or, more precisely, his agent—have not been able to come to terms on the terms of the contract. However, the quarterback for the Cowboys says that, at least not for him, the problem is unrelated to money.
“I play not to win money. To be honest with you, I’ve never been fond of it. Would forfeit everything to play this game alone. I therefore give the business people the freedom to determine its value and what they should reward a quarterback, a person, or a leader in my play. For me, it’s about handling the portion that I can control and controlling what I can control; the rest will work itself out.
