It happened.
Word broke on Sunday morning, just hours before the season begins, that the Dallas Cowboys are at long last signing quarterback Dak Prescott to another extension with the team. Prescott’s previous deal was the richest one in franchise history and this one obviously surpasses that.
What’s more is that Dak Prescott is now the highest-paid player in NFL history.
A deadline deal: Hours before Dallas kicked off its season, it reached agreement with QB Dak Prescott on a four-year contract, $240 million extension that will make him the highest-paid player in NFL history and keep him in a Cowboys uniform for seasons to come, per sources.
