Wednesday’s deadline for franchise players to sign multi-year deals came and went without any change in the status of Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.
He’ll become the third quarterback to play a season under the terms of one tag: Drew Brees and Kirk Cousins are the others, and he’ll settle for another tag, long-term deal, or unrestricted free agency once he arrives. the 2020 season an end. Prescott has signed his offer and as a result will earn $ 31.4 million this season.
Conversations about an extension have been going on since Prescott’s third season ended, but reports indicated that this year’s push failed in part because the Cowboys wanted a five-year contract while Prescott was looking for four years. The inability to reach an agreement did not lead to a rancorous response from Prescott on Wednesday night.
“I’m a cowboy and I couldn’t be happier,” Prescott said, through Jori Epstein of USAToday.com. “I look forward to working alongside the coach [Mike] McCarthy, the staff and my teammates to be the best team in pursuit of our goal of a Super Bowl. “
Another label in 2021 would have a $ 37.68 million salary and thriving on the McCarthy offense would likely raise the price of a longer-term deal higher than this offseason, so Prescott has plenty of reason to feel good about what it holds. the future, even if you didn’t get the offer you wanted this time.
