ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Sunday morning that it looks like the Cowboys and Dak Prescott are heading towards the franchise tag. Schefter says the talks remain at “impasse”.
With no long-term contract in sight, the Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott are heading straight toward a situation in which the team will have to use its franchise tag on the star quarterback, league sources told ESPN.
At this point, the franchise tag looks inevitable, according to sources, although neither side wants the tag to come into play. Dallas strongly prefers a long-term agreement, and it will continue to push to sign Prescott to an extension in the coming weeks.
