The Dallas Cowboys' future hinges on securing their star quarterback, Dak Prescott, for the long term. With his current contract expiring after the upcoming season, the team is actively negotiating a potential extension. This confirmed by executive vice president Stephen Jones at the recent NFL Scouting Combine.

A Cornerstone for the Dallas Cowboys' Future

Jones emphasized the team's unwavering dedication to keeping Prescott as their franchise quarterback, stating, "Our whole thing with Dak is him being a Cowboy. That's all that's on our mind."

Coming off a stellar season where he led the league in touchdown passes and earned All-Pro honors. Prescott is undeniably a cornerstone of the Cowboys' success. Jones reiterated this point, highlighting Prescott's crucial role in the team's plans for the future: "The end result for the Dallas Cowboys is for Dak Prescott to be their quarterback of the present and future."

While details remain confidential, both sides are committed to reaching a mutually beneficial agreement. Jones, though tight-lipped about specifics, reaffirmed the team's absolute commitment to extending Prescott's stay in Dallas.

The urgency to secure Prescott's long-term commitment is driven by the significant cap hit his current contract carries in the upcoming season. An extension would not only alleviate immediate cap concerns but also solidify Prescott's dedication to the franchise.

Negotiating The Dak Prescott Contract

However, the Cowboys face the challenge of balancing Prescott's contract with those of other key players like All-Pro talents CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons. Jones, despite the complexities involved, remains optimistic about finding solutions that prioritize both short-term flexibility and long-term success.

As negotiations progress, Cowboys' fans can be confident that the team is making every effort to secure Dak Prescott's future in Dallas. With the franchise's unwavering commitment and Prescott's proven leadership, the stage is set for a bright future for America's Team.
