Cowboys
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott will likely start the season with a contract that expires after the season. Prescott wouldn’t define a deadline.
“I’d say they’re working,” Prescott said, via ESPN’s Todd Archer. “I don’t know if that’s necessarily the timeline (of getting it done over the weekend). I can’t say, ‘I’ll put a timeline to Todd and Stephen if we don’t get this done,’ this or that. But I know they’re working.”
After receiving a big payday, Dallas WR CeeDee Lamb talked about how Prescott has done a great job keeping his contract situation away from the locker room.
“Obviously, Dak is doing a great job of not really bringing it into the workspace, but I know personally that it can take a toll on you,” Lamb added. “But he’s doing a great job of leading us in the right direction. He knows that we’re rooting for him. Me, the most, for sure. We need to hurry up and get this done, so we can just put this all behind us and go win more ballgames.”
- Prescott was asked how he would feel if he doesn’t have a new contract by Sunday: “People change their feelings daily. I can’t say I have the same feelings that I had last week.” (Jon Machota)
- Prescott also talked about winning a Super Bowl with Dallas: “That’s what motivates me on being here, honestly, is to be the quarterback that does it, that wins it. I don’t think that winning it any other place would be the same as winning it here. That’s A-No. 1 why I want to be here, to be honest with you.” (Machota)
Saints
- Saints DC Joe Woods on CB Marshon Lattimore: “He’s really been wired in. I think he’s ready to go.” (Katherine Terrell)
