Dak Prescott hopeful for contract extension with Cowboys

— Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott expressed optimism regarding ongoing discussions for a contract extension as he enters the final year of his $160 million deal. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Prescott noted, “Good conversations are going on,” indicating a positive outlook on the negotiations. He emphasized his confidence in the team’s management to reach an agreement, while humorously acknowledging his awareness of the situation depends on the quality of the offer. At 31 years old, Prescott has been open about his desire to continue with the Cowboys, the only team he has played for in his eight-year career. Despite his commitment to the franchise, he recognizes the potential for change, stating that the business side of football could lead to him playing elsewhere next season. Last season, Prescott showcased his skills with impressive statistics, throwing for 4,516 yards and 36 touchdowns, marking the third time he has surpassed 4,000 yards and 30 touchdowns in a single season. The Cowboys are currently navigating two significant contract negotiations, with Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb both seeking new deals. Lamb is notably absent from training camp as he pursues a contract extension. Together, Prescott and Lamb have been instrumental in the Cowboys' offense, combining for 30 touchdowns over the past three seasons, highlighting their importance to the team's success moving forward.
