DALLAS (105.3 THE FAN) - Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is still working on getting a contract done with starting QB Dak Prescott, but not quite yet.
Speaking on a podcast, Jones talked about his confidence in Dak and that he is looking forward to getting a deal finished.
"I am confident we will get this done" Jones told former Dallas Cowboys receiver Michael Irvin on the Rich Eisen Show.
"We are sold on Dak," said Jones. "We do want to have him for the long term. We think he is worthy of investing in for the long term. He is going into his fourth year in the NFL. When you look at the snaps he has had, the situations he has been in and how he has got here and you see he has performed, we see real upside in Dak."
The word on the streets is that Dallas is looking to get a record contract for Dak, somewhere in the ballpark of $30 million annually, according to reports.
"You don't have it all yet. We love the way he logically progresses through a game. You see when the going gets tough, when he's got to come from behind, when he turns it loose a little bit. You see him make those plays. He emboldens me to make a deal with him that puts him here for the long term."
