Dak Prescott is ‘confident’ agent, Cowboys will agree on contract extension

Dak Prescott may not care about exactly where his contract extension lands, but that doesn’t mean he’s giving way in talks with the Cowboys and Jerry Jones.

“I’m a guy that grew up with two older brothers,” Prescott told reporters in Oxnard, California on Friday. “You understand what a brotherhood means, not only for just this team but the fraternity of the NFL and the players. The money is out there and the money can happen. It can be done. There’s ways to make everything work for both ways. That’s in the sense it’s always about pushing the envelope for the next man.”

Prescott’s next deal is expected to be for a mammoth sum, as the Cowboys cannot franchise tag him after the season.

If he signs elsewhere as a free agent, it would stick Dallas with an approximate $40 million cap hit and without their franchise quarterback.

Jordan Love, Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence have all signed record deals for $55 million annually this offseason, though Prescott is older than that group at age 31.

Prescott has said he doesn’t want to be involved in negotiations, but his agent Todd France continues to talk with the Cowboys.

“I’ve never truly cared about the number whether it was the first time in the franchise tag and the negotiations or now,” Prescott said. “That’s why I said I have an agent that I’m confident in and a front office that we can figure out something for both of us that makes sense.”

The Cowboys also have to come to a resolution with CeeDee Lamb , who is holding out of training camp to pressure the Cowboys into a new deal as he heads into the last year of his rookie contract.

“I would not have a legitimate progress point there at all [with Prescott] and I really don’t have one for Lamb either,” owner Jerry Jones told reporters. “And it’s not negative. I’m just not thinking that it will do any good to talk about progress.”

Prescott said that Lamb reached out to wish him a happy birthday early last week, which led to a conversation between the two.

“I know he shared with me he’s wanting to get back, ready to get back, hoping this thing gets done for him. I know I am as well,” Prescott said. “Hopefully we’ll get him back sooner than later. But I know he’s grinding and working and ready to get back to work.”
