Jerry Jones Rules Out Dak Prescott Trade
12 Nov
Summary
- Jerry Jones confirmed no NFL teams inquired about trading for Dak Prescott.
- Prescott signed a four-year, $240 million extension in 2024.
- The Cowboys hold a 4-5 record due to a weak defense.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has firmly rejected any notion of trading quarterback Dak Prescott. Despite the team's current 4-5 record, influenced by a defense that ranks poorly in yards and points allowed, Jones asserted that trade discussions involving Prescott have never materialized. Jones emphasized that, throughout much of Prescott's tenure and contract, trading him would not have been a sensible decision for the franchise.
Prescott, who signed a four-year, $240 million extension in 2024, has accumulated 2,381 passing yards and 16 touchdowns through nine games this season. Jones also highlighted Prescott's health and durability as crucial factors in keeping the team stable. As the Cowboys sit 1.5 games behind the NFC East-leading Giants, Prescott believes the team can still capture the division title, though their upcoming home game against the strong 7-1 San Francisco 49ers presents a significant challenge.
