Dak Prescott Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott signed a franchise tag last week that will pay him just over $30 million for his services in 2020. However, according to former NFL executive Andrew Brandt, the 26-year-old could see a contract better than that of Chiefs' Signal-caller Patrick Mahomes when he finally lands a new deal. Prescott threw for nearly 5,000 yards in 2019, while also adding 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions off of a 65.1 completion percentage. Regardless of his contract situation, with the Cowboys having some lethal options on the offensive end, he could be in store for his best season to date.

The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott were involved in last-minute negotiations before the deadline on Wednesday to sign franchise-tagged players to deals, according to sources. The deal was for between $33-35 million annually, with $110 million guaranteed. Nothing came to fruition, so Prescott will make $31.4 million under the tag in 2020, with the two sides likely returning to the negotiating table next spring. They'll also have the option to franchise tag him again in 2021 for $37.69 million. Prescott reportedly turned down around $100 million in guarantees. He's betting on himself again this year to prove he's one of the top signal-callers in the league behind Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson. Prescott should be considered a midrange QB1 with plenty of upside in Dallas' explosive offense.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is not expected to agree to a long-term deal with the team before Wednesday's deadline. Prescott will play under the franchise tag this season, becoming the third quarterback to play under the tag (along with Kirk Cousins and Drew Brees). Prescott will earn $31.4 million this year before attempting negotiations again at a later date. Reports have stated that Prescott has turned down close to $100 million in guaranteed money. If he and the Cowboys can't agree to a deal next year, they'll have the option to tag him again for $37.69 million, but the two sides will likely try to work things out again before then.
