The Dallas Cowboys clearly would like to make Dak Prescott their franchise quarterback for the foreseeable future. The team used their exclusive franchise tag on Prescott earlier this offseason in order to retain the pending free agent.
Yet, Prescott has yet to sign that tag as the two sides continue to try to hash out the details of a long-term deal. Complicating matters is the possibility the fifth-year quarterback could elect to not participate in any offseason programs, virtual or not, until a new contract is agreed upon. And that’s problematic considering the Cowboys have a new head coach in Mike McCarthy.
