BB.Dak Prescott Confirms He Wants to Finish His Career in Dallas, Aims to Stay with the Cowboys Until Age 40
Dak Prescott Confirms He Wants to End His Career in Dallas, Affirming His Desire to Stay with the Cowboys Until Age 40
Frisco, Texas – Amid the soft afternoon sunlight blanketing the Cowboys’ practice field, Dak Prescott flashed a calm but resolute smile. At 32 years old, after a decade with Dallas, this captain has proven he’s not just the team’s QB—he’s the soul of “America’s Team.”
Prescott, in a conversation with ESPN, revealed that he doesn’t just want to play a few more years—he wants to dedicate himself to the Cowboys until he’s 40.
“Forties would be a good number,” he said. “If I can maintain the performance I want, to keep fighting in this silver and blue jersey until I’m 40… that would be the greatest thing in my life.”
Then Dak paused, gave a slight smile, and added a line that brought tears to the eyes of millions of Cowboys fans:
“My heart is always at AT&T. Dallas has become my second home. I grew up with this team, with these fans. Every time I step onto the field, it feels like I’m playing in front of my family… and I never want to leave.”
Prescott is currently under contract with Dallas until 2028—when he’ll turn 35. But with the way he speaks, lives, and leads, no one doubts that Dak wants to go further than that.
He’s faced challenging years—a severe ankle injury in 2020, then a torn hamstring in 2024—but each time he’s come back stronger, calmer. “That’s the spirit of a true Cowboy,” as head coach Mike McCarthy once said.
On the field, Prescott is nearing historic milestones—just a few hundred yards from surpassing Troy Aikman, and one more win to overtake Tony Romo. But for him, glory isn’t in the numbers—it’s in the journey:
“What makes me happiest is getting to keep representing Dallas—for this city, for the people who believed in me from day one. I’ll fight to my last breath for them.”
In a football world full of change, where many players switch teams like changing shirts, Dak Prescott chooses loyalty. And perhaps, that’s exactly what makes him not just the Cowboys’ QB—but a piece of the heart of Texas.
