The Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott have not been able to come to terms on a new contract that would keep him in Dallas for longer than this upcoming season. And it sounds like he has decided that he is open to the possibility of playing elsewhere if he can’t come to an agreement with the Cowboys.
Dak Prescott spoke about his contract situation at a recent charity event, and he made it clear that he is not afraid to walk away from the Cowboys if the team is not willing to give him a contract he feels that he deserves.
“I don’t fear either situation, to be candid with you,” Prescott said in a video shared by Jon Machota of The Athletic. “I love this game and love to play and love to better myself as a player, and my teammates around me. Right now it’s with the Dallas Cowboys. It’s where I want to be and it’s where I am and it’s the focus. After the season, we’ll see where we’re at. If the future holds that, yeah, and if not, we’ll go from there.”
Obviously, this is a pretty big decision from Prescott, and it led to a lot of reactions on social media.
Dak is clearly done playing nice.
Good for him. https://t.co/jMQ02nIYhr

Dak is standing up for himself and he should be. Jerry and Stephen have shown no commitment to him and that’s a tragedy when he has given them everything. Great leadership by Dak, poor ownership and management by the Jones’s. https://t.co/ygZ41cT2Db

We’ll have to see if this is indeed Prescott’s last season in Dallas.
