Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was put in a tough spot on Friday night as deals for Tua Tagovailoa’s contract and Jordan Love’s historic contract came rolling in one after another. Love’s deal made him the joint-highest-paid NFL QB going by average annual value at $55 million a year alongside Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence.
All eyes will turn to what the Cowboys intend to do with Dak Prescott, as has been the case with Dallas all season. In a scrum with reports on Saturday, July 27, after Jordan Love’s contract was announced, Jerry Jones told reporters:
“I get in trouble everytime I make comparisons. Of course we saw a head-to-head match with Green Bay last year. I might, just for that, get a chance to show he’s the best with the Cowboys star on him.”
When Jones was asked if Dak could pull those feats off without a new deal in hand, the Cowboys owner replied:
“Oh yes. But that might imply that we’re not doing a new deal, and that’s just not the case.”
