Dak Prescott, coming off a season where he got franchise tagged and where he dislocated his right ankle and suffered a compound fracture, signed a massive 4 year, $160M extension Monday. In his words, he never had a doubt he would remain in Dallas.
Full quote from ProFootballTalk:
“Through this whole time, I never had any doubt in my mind that I wouldn’t be here,” Prescott said Wednesday. “I’m a guy that lives and stands and moves every part of his body off the word ‘faith.’
He would also go on to say:
“I control the things I control. I have a great agent that I trust, Todd France, and obviously he did a great job. I trusted him, but through it all, I just focused on what I could focus on and controlled what I could control and figured that if I did that and was the best individual I could be in every aspect I would manifest what was out there for me. I’m a man that stands by faith and lives by that. A lot of people will say, ‘Hey, you gambled and you did this and you did that when you could have taken that,’ but in this world you get everything out of what you put into it. I just know from a little boy falling in love with this game to where I am now, the love has grown further. I’ve put a lot into it, and I’ve got a lot more to give. With that being said, I never had any doubt that I wouldn’t be here, that this deal wouldn’t get done and be right for the both of us and be right for the organization and everybody invested. I’m just thankful.”
Good on Dak Prescott for securing the bag. The debate will go on for the next four years if he deserved his money. In my opinion, if he is fully healthy this HAS to be a division winner next season. We shall see if he lives up to this massive contract, and I am excited to see it play out.
