Cowboys lost everything today as Dak Prescott is living cowboys today…
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sat at the Senior Bowl scouting prospects heading to the NFL Draft knowing his needs to cause disruption this offseason.
That’s the way Jones put it when speaking with reporters after yet another disappointing end to a fantastic regular season that earned his Cowboys the No. 2 seed in the NFC come playoff time. The Green Bay Packers went into Jerry’s World and dominated their way to the Divisional Round, leaving an offseason filled with question marks.
One of them was whether Jones kept head coach Mike McCarthy in place, and it was a quick decision to let him at least coach through the final year of his five-year contract.
But then there’s quarterback Dak Prescott, a $59.455 million cap hit for that 2024 season, who’s playing on the final year of his contract as well. Because Dallas is over the cap by about $19.7 million, the thought of extending Prescott to alleviate some of that debt, among other reasons like his MVP-caliber regular-season play in 2023, makes sense.
However, Jones isn’t ready to commit to Prescott remaining the quarterback of the Cowboys’ future — at least not after 2024.
