Star quarterback Dak Prescott, receiver CeeDee Lamb and pass rusher Micah Parsons are all eyeing long-term contract extensions in the near feature.
Earlier this year at the Senior Bowl, Jerry Jones declared the Cowboys front office would go 'all-in' this offseason. But so far, the offseason has been largely uneventful. Dallas has also not been particularly active in the free agent market. The Cowboys roster already features a fair number of players on the roster who already carry sizable salary cap hits. The franchise is also weighing lucrative contract extensions for some of their key players.
Honestly, I'm focused on the moment, on the now,' Prescott said. 'If the talks begin and real talks get to happen, sure, we can talk about getting that done, but in this case right now I'm worried about getting better, being better than I am at this moment. So leaving that up to my agent and Jerry at this point.' Meanwhile, Lamb is set to play in the upcoming season under his fifth-year option. He could receive the franchise tag designation next year.
Jerry cited the salary cap restraints that exist within the NFL when he discussed the inevitable departures of star players over the years. 'Dak has enjoyed, in his career that we're proud of, some of the best supporting casts that you could put around him,' Jerry Jones said. 'To move forward, we will have to diminish that. That's a fact. That's the rules. That's our challenge and to make it work out: Dak as the quarterback of the Cowboys.
