What Dak Prescott is saying as free-agency payday looms with lack of Cowboys extension
NY Post
Dak Prescott claims he isn’t interested in the truck loads of cash that he’s slated to make as a pending free agent in 2025 or the recipient of a mega extension with the Cowboys.
“I don’t play for money,” Prescott said, via Patrik Walker of the Cowboys’ official team website. “I have never cared for it, to be honest with you. Yeah, I would give it up just to play this game.
“I’ll leave that to the business people to say what it’s worth, what they’re supposed to give a quarterback of my play. It’s about controlling what I can control. Handle that part and everything else will take care of itself.”
Prescott, 30, is in the final year of a four-year, $160 million deal.
He has a cap hit of $55.4 million this year and will be a free agent after this season. According to a provision in his 2020 contract, he can not be franchise-tagged next offseason.
With the Cowboys lacking leverage to keep Prescott in Dallas, owner Jerry Jones will have to open his checkbook in record-breaking fashion or risk losing his star player.
If you can’t fix it, kill it, says Kevin Durant.
Yes, there are red flags to be wary of. Yes, there should be skepticism if a good team is willingly getting rid of a player.
