Dak Prescott advocates for George Pickens' future contract with Cowboys
Summary

Dak Prescott expressed his support for George Pickens' future contract during an appearance on Up & Adams on August 14, emphasizing that Pickens deserves a long-term deal. Prescott believes that the wide receiver, known for his passion for football, should be compensated fairly, especially given the rising market for wide receivers. However, the Cowboys cannot offer Pickens a new contract until after the Super Bowl, as he is currently signed to a one-year franchise tag worth $27.3 million. Prescott also acknowledged the financial complications of paying both Pickens and teammate CeeDee Lamb, who are among the league's top receivers.
