One improbable trade scenario sent Dak Prescott to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

After Green Bay Packers eliminated Dak Prescott and company from the NFL playoffs in the wild-card round, the Dallas Cowboys’ hopes of winning the Super Bowl in the 2023 NFL season came crashing down. Fans and analysts alike began to question if it was time for the Cowboys to let go of Prescott after the team’s early playoff elimination. Although it seems like a severe step for the Cowboys, is it possible that he will suit up for a different team—perhaps the Pittsburgh Steelers—when the 2024 NFL season begins?

To the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dak Prescott?

One fan raised the idea of Pittsburgh chasing after Dak Prescott via a trade, a point that was tackled on by

What are the odds that, after another Dallas playoff defeat, the Steelers deal for Dak Prescott this offseason? Is there any chance they’ll let Dak go this offseason?

But Jack Sperry of Steelers Talk shot that notion down right away for two very important reasons. Dak Prescott is a costly asset, to start. He just inked a $160 million, four-year contract extension with the Cowboys in 2021. His astounding $59 million 2024 cap hit is hiss. The Cowboys would have to swallow a harsh dead cap if they traded Prescott. Sperry claims the Steelers could not afford to absorb the same cap burden.

The Steelers aren’t happy with their quarterback position, for whatever reason. Pittsburgh doesn’t seem to see Kenny Pickett as a long-term centerfield option. By the conclusion of the 2023 season, Mason Rudolph will be free agency, while Mitchell Trubisky will still be Mitchell Trubisky.
