Dak Prescott is the 4th highest paid athlete in the world

Wow how about Watson?

To be fair, this is the Forbes ranking and it’s a little misleading. It you go to the original article by Forbes, they explain the quirk in the Dak comments.

Forbes calculates using May to May. Because Dak restructured in March, he basically had 2 salaries counted in 1 year.

For their calculations they count on-field and off-field (endorsements). For on-field, his income was $127M. For off-field, it was $10M.

Still overpaid IMO but I wanted to provide some context.

Dak thanks you and GTB for being loyal fans.

..welp, another Dak bashing thread. I dare anyone to say something positive.

Agreed.

Tired of all the crybabies around here.

Where are all the grown ups?

Kool

Go Cowboys!

DAK IS BETTER than any athlete mentioned!!

..welp, another Dak bashing thread. I dare anyone to say something positive.

Dak Prescott allowed me to let go of my naive hope that the Cowboys I grew up loving would reappear in my lifetime.
Dak Prescott's latest contract will give Jerry and Stephen everything they deserve for taking Cowboys fans for granted and turning a once great franchise into a circus act.
Dak Prescott’s latest contract will allow true fans of the real Dallas Cowboys to let go and realize there is life without the NFL.
I'm positive about these things.

 

[Clove]

Dak didn't sign himself, oh yeah Jerry did.

 

[plymkr]

Lol funny how Allen, Love, and now Purdy all signed after Dak, and they didn't use the excuse of the NFL brotherhood to sign a record deal

I can’t agree more. That’s what I’ve been harping on all night.

 

[plymkr]

Donuts are awesome....

I agree, donuts are awesome

 

[Ranching]

Agreed.

Where are all the grown ups?

Waldo's in China...

 

[stiletto]

Unbelievable ripoff...

 

[Rockport]

Based on salary + endorsements. He makes more than enough endorsement money but he still insisted on being the highest paid player in the NFL. Brock Purdy just agreed to a deal which pays him & million per year less than Dak. Unlike Dan he has been to the Super Bowl. he also drafted and outplayed Dan in the playoffs.

Go Cowboys!

 

[Ranching]

Go Cowboys!

He's a lot smarter than those other guys!

 

[Robbieac]

Go Cowboys!

Wow. You’re really celebrating something that is detrimental to your “team”?

With Dak over Dallas fans like you, who needs enemies?

 

[Rockport]

He's a lot smarter than those other guys!

Like a Maserati to a Pinto.

No, I’m celebrating you guys getting triggered over and over again.
