Dak Prescott is ready to start a new season with the Dallas Cowboys. Now, just hours before Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns, the quarterback received a massive contract extension.

Although the star player delivered MVP numbers in 2023, Jerry Jones didn’t seem willing to make him the highest paid player in NFL history. That sparked a massive controversy.

During the last few days, Dak Prescott said he didn’t fear free agency trying to win a Super Bowl. Today, in a shocking turn of events, everything has suddenly changed.

“People change their feelings daily. I can’t say I have the same feelings that I had last week. That’s what motivates me on being here, honestly, is to be the quarterback that does it, that wins it (the Super Bowl). I don’t think that winning it any other place would be the same as winning it here. That’s A-No. 1 why I want to be here, to be honest with you.”
