The Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott’s contract is up for extension, and there is a lot of worry about it.
It is quite improbable that he will get an extension before the regular season begins. People have conjectured that since this is his final season with the Cowboys, the team will have a lot of problems in the future.
In an interview with Fox Sports 1’s “Speak,” legendary Cowboys wide receiver and three-time Super Bowl winner Michael Irvin discussed some of the issues that have hindered Prescott’s contract negotiations.
He predicted that Prescott will remain in Dallas for many years to come, drawing a comparison between him and team owner Jerry Jones and an elderly married couple who quarrel over everything but stay together.
If Prescott isn’t an elite quarterback, he’s close, and last season, he momentarily became a leading MVP candidate as the schedule wound down.
He finished the year leading everyone with 410 completed passes and 36 touchdown passes while ranking third in passing yards and tied for the second-highest pass completion percentage.
The issue with Prescott is his continued poor performances in big games and in the playoffs, and it is something that some feel may give Jones pause as far as whether he wants to continue to invest in Prescott.
The signal-caller threw two early interceptions in last season’s wild-card playoff game against the Green Bay Packers that buried Dallas 27-0 late in the second quarter and doomed their chances of winning.
They ended up losing 48-32, which ended their long winning streak at AT&T Stadium.
