Will Dak Prescott get a contract extension?

Jerry Jones didn’t guarantee a contract extension for Dak Prescott with the Dallas Cowboys. The quarterback was supposed to reset the market, but, the owner is not ready to make that call yet even with reports of a $60 million per year deal on the horizon.

“We don’t need to, but we can if everybody wants to solve it (contract extension). You can get in and get on the same page and see if you can come to an agreement. If you can’t, what we have in place works. And so obviously, if you do it one way, you’ll be working through some of the other areas on the team in a different way, but you can’t really plan on that until you see when you’re there.”
