Jerry Jones: Prescott deal near as Cowboys top Giants 35-17

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dak Prescott still doesn’t want to talk about his contract.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says his star quarterback might not have to dodge the questions much longer.

After Prescott helped lighten the load on Ezekiel Elliott in the running back’s return from a long holdout by tying a career high with four touchdown passes in a 35-17 season-opening win over the New York Giants, Jones said a deal with the two-time Pro Bowler was “imminent.”

“Oh, yes, I do know that we’ll get it done,” Jones said Sunday night. “It would probably be fair to say it’ll be done on an imminent basis. Imminent. Without being real clear, bright lined. It’s not done. What’s imminent? Well, days. Days. Or something like that.”
