The Dallas Cowboys secured an impressive 33-17 victory over the Cleveland Browns, bolstered by a strong defensive performance and a standout punt return by KaVontae Turpin. Despite Dak Prescott's pedestrian stats, he received positive reviews following his significant contract extension, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history.

Prescott expressed dissatisfaction with his play, acknowledging the pressure that comes with his new deal and the high expectations for the season. Coach Mike McCarthy emphasized the importance of securing Prescott for the future. The Cowboys are now faced with maintaining a competitive roster while managing high salary commitments within the league's salary cap structure.
