Jerry Jones had a very complicated offseason with the Dallas Cowboys. During the last few weeks, the famous owner was under a lot of scrutiny about the contract situation of Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb.

First, Jones took care of Lamb by giving him a four-year, $136 million deal. The money was just a little below the benchmark already established by Justin Jefferson with the Vikings at $35 million annually.

However, the biggest story in the NFL was undoubtedly Prescott. If the Cowboys believed he was the key factor to win a Super Bowl, why wait so long to extend their star.

“What it means is a big commitment to the next five years, to our future, if you will. There’s a lot of me that thinks, I hope Dak is our quarterback for the rest of my time. And that’s not just limited to the terms of this contract, either. I have a lot of confidence in him. He brings so much to the table.”
