The Dallas Cowboys have been largely praised for hammering out a contract extension with Dak Prescott simply earlier than the beginning of the 2024 season, however one franchise legend believes it was a nasty determination.
Throughout a Wednesday look on “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd, former Cowboys head coach Jimmy Johnson was requested what he would do that upcoming offseason to deal with a few of the points in Dallas. The 2-time Tremendous Bowl champion first started by questioning the crew’s determination to provide Prescott a four-year, $240 million extension.
“Properly, to begin with, they’re so financially strapped with a few of these contracts. To begin with, I’d have by no means given Prescott a brand new contract,” Johnson stated. “I’d let him play it out. He’s the highest-paid participant within the league. He’s not the very best participant within the league.
“He wasn’t gonna go anyplace. If they’d gone to the Tremendous Bowl with him, hey, he wasn’t gonna go anyplace. Pay him no matter. If he struggled within the playoffs, you then negotiate. Or if he obtained damage, you lower your expenses.”
