Jerry Jones believes Prescott, Tom Brady share similar qualities

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones believes quarterback Dak Prescott and Tom Brady could have a similar career arch.

"Just as Brady became, in my mind, better and better and more impactful on how they won as he got into his career, I think Dak really has those qualities. I think he can get better," Jones said, according to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas News.

Brady won three Super Bowls in his first five years in the NFL, while Prescott has failed to reach the Conference Championship in his first seven years.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady found success later in his career, winning four championships after 35 years of age. Prescott will be 30 years old when the 2023 season begins.

Prescott is set to have a $49.1-million cap hit in 2023, according to Over The Cap. CeeDee Lamb was the only Cowboys player to eclipse 600 receiving yards last season, while Dalton Schultz, Ezekiel Elliott, and Michael Gallup combined for $33.9 million against the cap in 2022.

"When you do what you do today and invest in a quarterback the way you do with these premium quarterbacks, that automatically has to be diminished ... And when you ask me the supporting cast around him, it'll be hard to get the supporting cast the way we did when he started his career," Jones said, according to Gehlken.
