Dak Prescott still doesn’t have a contract in place and recent whispers out of The Star have indicated that the Cowboys are moving towards a franchise tag for their star quarterback. However this gets resolved, all eyes are on Dallas, as per usual.
It’s looking more likely that Dallas will use the franchise tag on Prescott, keeping him under contract for another year while the sides negotiate a long-term contract. The franchise tag number is going to be roughly $27 million, which could cause Prescott to hold out because it’s considerably less than what he could make annually under a long-term deal.
