Jerry Jones has left many bewildered about Dak Prescott’s current status with the Dallas Cowboys.
The talented quarterback will not receive a contract extension soon, leaving the door open for him to become a free agency. Jones appears to be ready to wait until the 2024 season is complete before making a definitive choice. If Dak wins a Super Bowl, the enormous cost of a new contract will be justified.
If America’s Team fails again, one of the NFL’s most important teams may choose to start over. This is a major story to follow.
Who will replace Dak Prescott with Dallas Cowboys?
Shedeur Sanders has been mentioned as a potential replacement for Dak Prescott in recent weeks. The young quarterback is now thriving with the Colorado Buffaloes and will be available for the 2025 NFL draft.
Despite rumors percolating in the NFL, Jerry Jones gave a good message about Dak’s status. According to the owner, there is no Plan B in the works.
“We don’t need to complete things before the season (new deal). Because having a successful season is in everyone’s best interests, including Dak’s. In reality, thinking like that before the season is usually unrealistic. But sitting here, I believe Dak will be the Cowboys’ quarterback in 2025 and beyond. But all I’m going to say is this: it’s not finished yet.”
Will Dak Prescott become a free agent?
If Dak Prescott does not sign a contract extension by March, he will become an unrestricted free agent for the 2025 season. In that case, any team might offer to make him the highest-paid player in NFL history.
