CELINA, Texas — Are the Cowboys really "all in?"
Jerry Jones used the verbiage at the beginning of the offseason – with little moves to back up those words to the chagrin of Cowboys fans online – but the team's signal caller seems locked in to make Jones put his money where his mouth is. It's not too often you see workout content of Dak Prescott online, but some content made it's way out from behind the curtain and into the light of day.
A video emerged Thursday on Instagram (@jlstudioz) of the Cowboys quarterback getting a workout in at Celina High School in North Texas. It's unclear when the workout took place, but the video was posted on Thursday and a gallery slideshow from the workout was posted in late March. Prescott lives in near by Prosper, which is north of the Cowboys' The Star training facility in Frisco.
Prescott is entering the final year of his contract with the Cowboys, which was recently reduced in order to minimize the cap hit for the upcoming season. A $5 million roster bonus has been converted into a signing bonus to reduce the 2024 cap hit by $4 million, to about $55 million, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the club doesn't release details of contracts. The move was first reported by ESPN.
The Cowboys can create more salary cap relief with an extension for Prescott, who is coming off a wild-card loss at home to Green Bay that dropped his playoff record to 2-5. While Jerry Jones has said the club plans to keep Prescott, the team owner and general manager hasn't struck the same definitive tone he did in 2021 before signing his franchise quarterback to a club-record $160 million, four-year contract. The reworking of the contract included adding two more voidable years in 2027 and 2028, which pushed Prescott's salary cap number in 2025 up slightly to $40 million.
Prescott is coming off a 2023 campaign that saw the 2016 fourth round selection throw for 4,516, 36 touchdowns and nine interceptions.
