Cowboys news: Dak Prescott set to sign franchise tender, NFL is “optimistic” about 2020 season

The Dak Prescott/Dallas Cowboys negotiations have been a popular subject this offseason. While we won’t know if Prescott will get a long-term deal until likely July 15th, we did find out that the quarterback is signing his franchise tender.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott plans to sign his $31.4 million exclusive franchise tender by Monday, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The two sides still have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal. The Cowboys had placed the franchise tag on Prescott on March 18.

By signing his franchise tender, Prescott will be contractually obligated to report to training camp on time, whether or not he and the Cowboys can figure out a long-term deal.
