Cowboys’ Dak Prescott Is Reportedly Leaving Adidas to Become Jordan Brand Athlete
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is moving on from Adidas.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the pro football player is leaving his longtime ties with the German athletic company to sign a contract with Jordan Brand. In an email to FN, Jordan Brand confirmed that it has signed the quarterback.
The deal, Schefter said, will reportedly make Prescott the only Jordan Brand quarterback in the league, as well as the highest-paid NFL player in the label’s wheelhouse — the Cowboys and Prescott inked a four-year, $160-million contract in March. Prescott will also be the only current member of the Cowboys lineup to have a Jordan Brand deal.
In an email, Jordan Brand would not comment on any of the terms of the deal.
The Mississippi State graduate has been an Adidas ambassador since his rookie year in 2016. During their time as partners, the Three Stripes brand and Prescott released a series of collaborative collections and the athlete sported cleat designs from the label during games and practices.
