Dak Prescott recently signed a four-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys for $160,000,000. His deal includes $126,000,000 in guaranteed money, and a signing bonus of $66,000,000 – the highest in NFL history. The 2021 NFL season alone will bring him $75,000,000. That’s far above his $31,000,000 in 2020, but, after all, that was for only five games. In this Superbowl-crazy league, Dak is 1-2 in postseason play.
Dak spent two of his 27 years negotiating this deal. His comment was, “Money has never been a motivator.” Somehow, that’s difficult to believe.
