Dak Prescott Signs Historic $240M Cowboys Deal

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has signed a historic four-year, $240 million contract extension, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history with an average annual salary of $60 million. The deal includes significant guarantees, a no-trade clause, and provisions for further extensions. Reactions to the contract have been mixed, with ESPN's Stephen A. Smith criticizing the high pay despite Prescott's limited playoff success, while former Cowboys coach Jason Garrett and teammate Micah Parsons defended Prescott's performance and leadership. Prescott celebrated the contract by leading the Cowboys to a 33-17 victory over the Cleveland Browns, emphasizing his commitment to winning a Super Bowl. The Cowboys are now expected to focus on extending linebacker Micah Parsons' contract next.
