Dak Prescott, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Non-Exclusive Franchise tag

Picture this if you will… Dak Prescott strutting his stuff to the song “The Power” by Snap! like Jim Carrey in the movie Bruce Almighty. I honestly can’t think of a more fitting image as it applies to contract negotiations between Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott as things currently stand.

2021 NFL Draft: Will the Dallas Cowboys Draft a Safety Early?

2021 NFL Draft: Will the Dallas Cowboys Draft a Safety Early?
