Dak Prescott sent a clear message to Jerry Jones about his contract situation with the Dallas Cowboys.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott implied the 2024 season could be his last with the team if a contract extension isn’t reached. The quarterback acknowledged that fact when speaking to reporters from the Children’s Cancer Fund Gala on Friday. The Athletic‘s Jon Machota shared the news in his latest piece.
“I’m not gonna say I fear being here or not. I don’t fear either situation, to be candid with you,” Prescott told reporters Friday at a charity event. “I love this game and love to play and love to better myself as a player and my teammates around me. Right now, it’s with the Dallas Cowboys. It’s where I want to be, and that’s where I am, and that’s the focus. After this season, we’ll see where we’re at, and if the future holds that, then [great]. If not, we’ll go from there.”

Prescott did appear to corroborate claims that there isn’t much of a push for a deal right now, which suggests that meaningful talks about an extension haven’t yet begun.
“I’m focused on the moment and on the now,” Prescott said. “If the talks begin and real talks get to happen, I’m sure we can talk about getting that done.”
