Video starts at the relevant portion. Fish knows the Athletic reporter and that she has sources inside The Star. Essentially, it's not the APY that is the sticking issue, it's the Cowboys unwillingness to give Dak long-term security with the team.

As I had been saying to some folks, the party that cares (or can afford to care the least) almost always has the leverage. Dak wants the Cowboys more than they want him.

If that happens, you will get what you deserve.
It is possible to find another QB. I think people are stressing too much over this. Hell, the Bucs made the playoffs with Mayfield. I don't dislike Dak, I dislike Dak at 60M a year +95M carry over. A QB like Dak on a rookie deal would be just fine. Without the panic mode in the playoffs of course. Even a second contract isn't that bad if done correctly. But a 3rd contract is where it gets really tough.

Never make the one that gave you the opportunity cry. Jerry is fed up. Garrett may have taught him something, time to move on. Pack your stuff, give Quincy a call.

You will find one that sucks.

It’s business and Daks career, and will see how it plays out. But the signals the Cowboys are sending say they are not committed to him, so Dak should do what’s best for his career. I hope to see him on another team next year and get his payday.

It’s about the guaranteed at signing money. Cowboys want a shorter deal that has way less guaranteed money at signing than Dak wants. Years is just another way to state this. If the deal does not get done before the season begins, they will all wait till after the season is over.
