Prescott's performance has been strong, with 1,381 passing yards, nine touchdowns, and only three interceptions, but the team's overall record includes a losing streak. The expensive salary of $60 million annually paid to Prescott may be a factor in the team's decision to find a replacement. With the quarterback class in the upcoming draft being historically strong, the Cowboys could secure a top-notch prospect in the first round, including Arch Manning, who is often projected as a top-five pick.
