Cowboys resume contract talks with Dak Prescott

The Dallas Cowboys have resumed contract negotiations with quarterback Dak Prescott, according to ESPN's Ed Werder.

What It Means:

Nine days ago, the Cowboys placed the exclusive rights franchise tag on Prescott, guaranteeing he will play for Dallas this upcoming season. Now they are tasked with signing him to a multi-year deal that will keep him there. The former 4th round draft pick is expected to earn more than $30 million annually under any new contract he signs.

The 26-year-old captained a Cowboys offense that ranked 5th overall last season, according to Pro Football Focus. Prescott's PFF passing grade of 76.6 ranked 13th among quarterbacks, and he set career-highs in touchdowns (30), and yards per attempt (8.2).
