Dak Prescott Becomes Highest-Paid Player in NFL History with $240 Million Contract

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott signed a record-breaking four-year extension just hours before the season opener.

Prescott's new deal makes him the highest-paid player in NFL history with an average annual value (AAV) of $60 million.
The extension follows a series of high-profile contracts for quarterbacks like Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, and Jordan Love.
Micah Parsons, another key player for the Cowboys, is looking to maximize his value ahead of his own contract extension.
Parsons praised new defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer for giving him more freedom on the field, contributing to a strong Week 1 performance.
The Cowboys started their season with a 33-17 win over the Cleveland Browns, with Prescott and Parsons playing pivotal roles.
