<p><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/dallas-cowboys-t34860" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Dallas Cowboys</strong></a>‘ quarterback <strong>Dak Prescott</strong> recently opened up about his struggles with depression. He’s had a tough time dealing with anxiety and negative thoughts throughout the offseason, yet <strong>Skip Bayless</strong> believes people shouldn’t be empathetic of him because he’s an <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nfl-t20281" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NFL</strong></a> player.</p>
<p>Prescott went on record on an interview lately to discuss <strong>his issues with mental health</strong>. He admitted that he was experiencing a huge burden, especially after the death – an alleged suicide – of his brother.</p>
<p><em>“All throughout this quarantine and this offseason, I started experiencing emotions I’ve never felt before. Anxiety for the main one. And then, honestly, a couple of days before my brother passed, I would say I started experiencing depression. And to the point of,<strong> I didn’t want to work out anymore</strong>. I didn’t know necessarily what I was going through, to say the least, and hadn’t been sleeping at all,</em>” Prescott started.</p>

<h3>Skip Bayless Doesn’t Feel Bad For Dak Prescott</h3>
<p>FOX Sports’ pundit Skip Bayless – a confess Cowboys fan – took it to his tv show Undisputed to discuss Prescott’s comments. According to him, <strong>Prescott isn’t entitled to being clinically depressed because he’s the quarterback of an NFL team</strong>, going as far as to call him a ‘fake leader’.</p>

<p><em>“I have deep compassion for clinical depression, but when it comes to the quarterback of an NFL team…it’s the ultimate leadership position in sports. Because of all that, I<strong> don’t have sympathy for him going public with ‘I got depressed,”</strong> </em>he said.</p>

<p>Prescott, obviously, didn’t take Bayless’s comments lightly. Then again, he responded in a classy manner by stating that admitting that he was depressed didn’t make him a fake leader at all:<strong><em> “No, I think that’s a fake leader. Being a leader is about being genuine and being real,” </em></strong>Prescott said.</p>

Dak Prescott fires back at Skip Bayless' comments about his depression

Dak Prescott fires back at Skip Bayless' comments about his depression - Bolavip US

<p><strong>Ezekiel Elliott</strong> is one of the best running backs in the game right now and that goes without saying. Nevertheless, the <a href="https://www.nfl.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a> is a passer’s league nowadays and the<strong> Dallas Cowboys</strong> will only go as far as<strong> Dak Prescott </strong>can take them, for better or worse.</p>
<p>Prescott showed glimpses of grate talent when he stepped up for the injured <strong>Tony Romo</strong> and earned the starting quarterback spot under <strong>Jason Garrett’s</strong> tutelage. However, his team’s struggles vs. playoff teams have raised some questions regarding Prescott’s status as their franchise gunslinger.</p>
<p>That’s why the team has gone back-and-forth when it has come to negotiate a contract extension. Even so, Ezekiel Elliott<strong> is pretty confident aboutPrescott as the team’s quarterback going forward </strong>and had his teammates’ back when asked about their ongoing dispute.</p>

<p><em>“Everyone in our locker room knows who our quarterback is. They know who our quarterback long-term is gonna be. Just keep grinding. Head down, do what you been doing. It’s going to work itself out,”</em> Elliott said, as quoted by <strong>Jon Machota </strong>of<strong> The Athletic.</strong></p>
<p>Ezekiel Elliott is quite familiar with Prescott’s situation, as he threatened to opt-out of last year’s season until the <a href="https://www.dallascowboys.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cowboys</a>agreed to offerhima <strong>six-year, $90-million contract extension</strong> that made him the highest-paid running back in the league.<span></span></p>

<p>According to multiple reports, Dak Prescott’s camp demand he gets something<strong> north of 35 million dollars per year</strong>, which is the market value for the top-tier quarterbacks in the league. Nonetheless, Prescott’s status as a top-notch signal-caller is still up to debate.</p>

<p>The Cowboys placed the franchise tag on Prescott and he’s slated to make <strong>$31.4 million</strong> this season.
