Jerry Jones drops the mic: Inside Dak Prescott’s contract negotiation

Dak Prescott played the long game in his contract chess match. With his current deal clocking out after the 2024 season, Prescott’s no rookie when it comes to negotiation tactics. Last offseason, he pulled a savvy move by pump-faking contract talks, letting other QB studs like Hurts, Lamar Jackson, Herbert, and Burrow spike the market.

But Jerry Jones isn’t just here to play defense. According to the latest play-by-play from Jon Machota on ‘X’ , Jones is strutting into the contract saga with confidence. Machota tweeted, “Jerry Jones on @1053thefan sounded confident about their ability to get Dak Prescott’s next contract done.”

The tweet further stated that Jones said, “Don’t pay any attention to discussion. It’s meaningless. The only thing that is factual here is what I decide and what we decide as a team and what Dak decides. … We know exactly where we are on the contract, years left on the contract and we should be, and are, about as close on that type of communication. … The timing on it remains to be seen.”
