Jerry Jones: Cowboys Focused on Building Around Dak Prescott Amid Contract Talks

Ron Jenkins/Associated Press

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is more focused on building the roster around Dak Prescott than getting to work on a long-term deal with his star quarterback.

Appearing on NFL Network's schedule release show (h/t NFL.com's Grant Gordon), Jones explained that he wants to put a strong supporting cast around Prescott:

"I think when I look at the career that Dak has had with the Cowboys, it gives me a really solid feeling about what's in store for us in the future. We've got to do everything we can—and that's what we're doing in this offseason—to put the players on the Cowboys that are players that can—with his talent as quarterback—really win championships or have a shot at it.
