The Cowboys want to get quarterback Dak Prescott inked prior to the March 9th franchise tag deadline, this according to Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Last season Prescott made $31.409 million on the franchise tag, but of course he only played three and a half games before breaking his ankle and ending his season.
The 27-year-old could look to play under the franchise tag again if for some reason the two sides can’t agree on a deal.
Reports say that the tag would pay the quarterback about $37.7 million for the 2021 season.
Dallas owner and GM Jerry Jones has been vocal about thinking the two sides would eventually get a deal done, but until they do, there’s going to be plenty of question marks about what type of money it’s going to take to get him signed.
Prescott is reportedly ahead of schedule injury wise to make it back for the 2021 season, as he had a second surgery about two months after the injury first took place.
