Even if (when) Dallas processes a full salary conversion, the lowest his cap hit can be for the upcoming season is $52.7M.&#8221; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It had come after Stephen Jones announced Prescott\u2019s contract restructuring plan. It was surely the time when the highest-paid QB in the league was encircled by heavy backlash from the Cowboys fans after a hamstring injury.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But the Cowboys&#8217; No. 4 bounced back with a healthy recovery from an injury and sent a clear message of arrival by saying he is full go for the upcoming season. And just a few days after he said that, the Cowboys&#8217; training started with so much noise, which was not just because of Prescott, but also because the people wanted to see <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2025\/07\/25\/george-pickens-compares-himself-and-ceedee-lamb-to-45b-legendary-gaming-characters\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">George Pickens and CeeDee playing together<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buckle up, as the upcoming season is going to be unprecedented in terms of looking at the past 35 years for the franchise. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/tag\/jerry-jones\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Jerry Jones<\/a>\u2019 team hasn&#8217;t won a Super Bowl in the past 30 years.
