A $240 million, four-year contract extension has been agreed upon by the Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott! It took place.
Just hours before the season kicks off, word leaked out on Sunday morning that quarterback Dak Prescott will finally be signing a new contract deal with the Dallas Cowboys.
Prescott’s current contract clearly outpaces his previous one, which was the richest in the franchise’s history.
Furthermore, Dak Prescott currently holds the record for the highest salary of any NFL player.
The first player to earn $60 million annually is Prescott. Seismic, to put it mildly, is it.
One of the main plots of this offseason and the previous one was whether or not the Cowboys would pay Prescott again.
The team did not pay wide receiver CeeDee Lamb until the very last minute, in addition to him.Lamb was granted a $136 million, four-year deal on his own.
In almost every measurable area, Prescott is expected to conclude his career as the Dallas Cowboys franchise leader.
It seems sense that, after everything is said and done, his name will be at the top of the franchise record books in the majority of categories given the new contract that has been put in place.
Like with other Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks, Prescott’s lack of playoff success has drawn a lot of attention. He has led the Cowboys to five postseason appearances in eight seasons at center.
Only twice following postseason victories have Prescott-led teams advanced to the Divisional Round; in his rookie season, the team received a first-round bye.
He will undoubtedly have time to help the Cowboys break their current drought as a team and, ideally, emerge from the shadow that hangs over all they do.
Now that CeeDee Lamb has been addressed and acknowledged, the passing game’s future is secure.
As of 11:30 a.m. ET
The largest guarantee in NFL history—$231 million—is part of this deal.
It was evident at every stage of the procedure:
Dak possessed absolute power. It appears he made use of it.
