Cowboys' Stephen Jones calls Dak Prescott contract talks a 'zero sum game'

The Dallas Cowboys offseason is creeping along with no new deal for quarterback Dak Prescott, and the son of the team’s owner is now signaling some worries about what an extension could do to the team’s cap space.

Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones acknowledged to reporters on Wednesday that Prescott’s contract status is “the elephant in the room” for the team’s offseason, according to The Dallas Morning News.

In particular, Jones indicated that Prescott is in line for a big-time deal, but that it wouldn’t come without major salary cap ramifications.
