Will Rivera change franchise history of no long-term contracts for tagged players?

NFL.com this week published an article that ranked the 15 men playing on the franchise tag this year in order of likelihood of playing for the same team in 2021. Dak Prescott was ranked the most likely to return, while Washington’s right guard, Brandon Scherff came in at #4 on the list.
