Dak Prescott Fantasy

The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott remain hopeful that a long-term deal will be worked out, but those talks haven't picked up in intensity in recent weeks. If a long-term deal isn't reached by July 15, Prescott will have to play on the franchise tag ($31.4 million) through the 2020 season. The Cowboys currently have an offer out to Prescott that would make him the second-highest paid NFL QB in terms of average per year, according to sources. Not only did Prescott have a career year in 2019, but he now has a receiver trio of Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup and impressive rookie CeeDee Lamb, not to mention one of the best running backs in the league in Ezekiel Elliott. An extension for the 26-year-old should get done before the deadline, and Prescott should be considered the No. 3 fantasy QB behind Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has still not signed the franchise tender, as he and the team are still in talks regarding a long-term contract. Despite Prescott being unsigned, owner Jerry Jones said in an interview that the team is focused on adding talent to surround the QB, who he is confident will be part of a bright future in Dallas. Prescott shattered his previous career-highs last season, throwing for 4,902 yards and 30 touchdowns and the team placed the franchise tag on Prescott, which would pay him roughly $31 million this season despite contract extension talks that date back to last offseason. With former Bengals starter Andy Dalton now signed as a backup, it does not appear a long-term deal is imminent, which could get interesting if Prescott remains unsigned into the summer.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is still expected to sign his franchise tender, with sources saying that theAndy Dalton deal is not related to Prescott still being unsigned. The franchise tender would pay Prescott roughly $31 million this season, but the two-time Pro Bowler hasn't signed yet because he wants a long-term deal. While the team said they signed Dalton as insurance and to add another veteran voice in the QB room, the team can pull the franchise offer from Prescott until he signs, though that scenario is unlikely. Prescott had a big 2019, throwing for over 4,900 yards and 30 touchdowns and should still be drafted as high as the third QB off the board for a loaded Cowboys offense.
