Steelers Strike Gold: Dak Prescott Leaves Cowboys to Join Pittsburgh Roster
In a shocking move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL, quarterback Dak Prescott has left the Dallas Cowboys to join the Pittsburgh Steelers. The news, which was announced just days before the start of the regular season, has left fans and analysts alike stunned.
Prescott, who has been with the Cowboys since 2016, was expected to lead the team into the new season. However, it appears that he has opted for a fresh start in Pittsburgh, where he will join a Steelers team looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2023 campaign.
The terms of Prescott’s deal with the Steelers have not been disclosed, but sources close to the team indicate that it is a multi-year agreement worth tens of millions of dollars.
The move is a significant coup for the Steelers, who have been searching for a franchise quarterback since the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger. Prescott, who has thrown for over 20,000 yards in his career, is expected to bring stability and leadership to a Steelers offense that has struggled in recent years.
For the Cowboys, meanwhile, the loss of Prescott is a devastating blow. The team had been built around the quarterback, and his departure leaves a significant void. The Cowboys will now be forced to scramble to find a replacement, with options limited just days before the start of the season.
The move is a reminder that in the NFL, nothing is ever certain, and that even the biggest stars can change teams in the blink of an eye.
The Dallas Cowboys have completed nearly two weeks of training camp in Oxnard, California with the first preseason game coming up this Sunday. The Cowboys’ offseason has led to concern amongst fans and part of those concerns is the lack of a contract extension for either quarterback Dak Prescott or wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who are both in the last year of their current deals.
Prescott, for his part, is still participating in practices while Lamb has staged a complete offseason holdout until a deal arrives. Although Prescott is not holding out, he does expect to get that raise and isn’t planning to settle for less than the current market – a market that could make him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. This is a controversial topic, as many don’t believe that kind of pay is deserved. Those same people would probably also admit they’d prefer it to having no Dak at all on the roster.
