Yep. Still expect the long term deal to get done though.
If Dallas would really commit to building it around him he would really shine. But handing it off to zeke under center wastes daks talent
Hasn't Dak been in that club for several years, now???
Yes. This contract is worth less than half of what he makes in endorsements, which is supposedly about 70 million and change.Quote:

The only incentive he has to sign now is injury in the next year, which again, just means he's "only" going to earn around $35M plus endorsement money in his career. Now that Dallas made him take that risk for an entire year, if I were him, I wouldn't be interested in accommodating anything less than the last counter he made.Quote:

Won big is an understatement. It's basically like winning the powerball every year for as long has he stays healthy. And I agree, Dallas QB is probably the premiere position for endorsements in the entire NFL. It's every kids dream job.Quote:

At this point, he doesn't need money for personal needs. He can use it to change lives and make a difference. Not everyone that gets that kind of money does these things. I have a feeling he will try so the more he gets, the better off we all may be.
