Despite starting every game for the Dallas Cowboys in the last three years, quarterback Dak Prescott was one of the least paid QBs in the league last season, earning $630,000 in 2018. He is looking to change that soon and is currently negotiating a new contract extension with the Cowboys although two sides are yet not close to the deal. Still, the fans shouldn’t be worried about the negotiations too much, as it seems like Prescott is determined to play out his career in Dallas.

“I want to be a Cowboy forever,” – said Prescott in a recent interview published on the Cowboys’ official website. “I think the people that are doing the deal feel the same way so to me it’s no rush. I know it will get done.”

According to Prescott, he isn’t too worried about the contract extension and rather focuses on becoming a better football player.

“My whole focus is within the locker room,” – he added. “I’ve got people that take care of that. I’ve got a great team, team of agents. That’s their job. Jerry has said when he’s had to that they are negotiating but as far as I’m concerned, it’s just about getting better, getting better as quarterback, getting better as a leader and just making sure our team is getting better.”

Dak Prescott was drafted in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, and initially supposed to be a backup for veteran Tony Romo. After Romo got injured in the preseason, Prescott assumed the role of a starter in at the beginning of his rookie season and hasn’t looked back since. He is currently the QB with most wins (33) since 2016 after New England Patriots’ Tom Brady.

During his three years in the NFL, Prescott completed 66.1 percent of his passes for 10,876 yards and 67 touchdowns in the regular season. He also rushed for 944 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Is it just us or is trash talk getting heated up in the opening weeks of 2018 NFL season? After all the antics from Jags’ cornerback Jalen Ramsey, New York Giants safety Landon Collins also decided to get into the business of throwing shade by making interesting comments about Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback Dak Prescott.

After being asked about the strategy of Giants’ defense for the Sunday’s game against the Cowboys, Collins said that they need to stop their running game and running back Ezekiel Elliott and that they have a better shot of winning the game if the ball is in Prescott’s hands.

“We’re making sure we close the air out of their offensive running game,” said Collins. “If we do that, put the ball in Dak’s hands, I think we’ll have a better shot at winning.”

Reporters asked Dak Prescott about Collins’ comments, and the 25-year-old QB looked like he is ready to get the ball in his hands.

“Challenge accepted,” said Prescott. “Challenge accepted.”

Cowboys receiver Allen Hurns also weighed in on the comments from the opposition, saying that the team feels they were more about the entire passing game.

“As far as him saying it out loud, it doesn’t change anything for us,” – said Hurns. “Of course, he kind of called out our quarterback, but we know, week in, week out, we’ve got to make plays in the passing game.”

While Landon Collins’ comments were a well-though dig to get his opponents off balance, he does have a point. In the recent time, when teams gave Dak Prescott opportunity to beat them, he mostly blew it.

Prescott ended the season-opening loss against the Carolina Panthers by throwing for 170 yards and completing 19 out of his 29 passes. This means that he didn’t pass for 200 or more yards in seven games out of his last nine. The even more alarming thing is that he didn’t have a single touchdown pass in his previous six regular-season games.
