Jerry Jones is still hesitant to give Dak Prescott an extension as he approaches the last year of his deal.

Although an extension is not imminent, owner Jerry Jones is still hopeful that his quarterback will play for the team for at least the ninth season and wants Dak to stay for many more. Our desire is Dak Prescott. That concludes it,” he told NFL Network’s Jane Slater.

Having said that, there have been inquiries as to why a new contract hasn’t been revealed. Jones responds that he will take all the time necessary to determine the best course of action and to present a reasonable offer.

We wish there were more falling leaves. We’re hoping for more movement. We refer to it as option quarterback. I’ve played option quarterback all of my life. The owner of the Cowboys stated, “I want to see some more cards played.”

During the first three seasons of his current contract, Dak Prescott has averaged a 68.1 completion percentage. It is only in 2022 that he played in 12 games and passed for 2,860 yards and 23 touchdowns that he has passed for more than 4,000 passing yards in two of his previous three years.

With a 104.2 passer rating in 2023, he scored 37 touchdowns and only 10 interceptions.

Although many think he will receive a contract extension, don’t be shocked if it occurs after the 2024 season.

CeeDee Lamb, a wide receiver, is deserving of a new contract even though he is approaching the end of his present one. After receiving 135 passes for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns, he just finished his best season as a professional.

If the Cowboys hope to remain competitive in the NFC East, they will need to invest heavily on their quarterback and receiver, which will likely require adjustments at some other positions.

Linebacker Micah Parsons’ contract gets his fifth-year option exercised by the organization, meaning he will play for them at least until the 2025 campaign.
