The waiting is the hardest part and it is finally over Dak Prescott with the Dallas Cowboys.
The quarterback and team that drafted him in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft have agreed to a four-year, $160M contract on Monday, the day before they would have had to franchise tag him for a second time.
Cowboys are giving Dak Prescott a four-year, $160 million deal, including a record $126 million guaranteed, source tells ESPN.
The first three years average $42 million per year.

Prescott, who turns 28 in July, is coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle suffered in the Week 5 win against the New York Giants last October, but he was predicted to make a full recovery during the 2021 offseason program.
