Dak Prescott On Hiring Odell Beckham Jr: “He knows how much I want him here”
Here’s how he put it:
“Hopefully everything’s going great in the recruiting process. He knows how much I want him here. And a lot of these guys in this locker room have reached out on their own and in different ways to make sure he understands this is a team that he can help and we want him to come. Yeah, definitely have sent some messages.”

He continued, explaining that he knows the entire team wants Beckham:
“I’ve been a little back and forth. Just making sure he understands that we want him here and as I said before, I understand it’s a business, but right now I guess it’s a ‘who can recruit better.’ I don’t know what he’s looking for when it comes to the numbers and long-term and all that. But I know that we want him here and hoping it all works out.”

After Thanksgiving, Beckham will visit the Cowboys, owner Jerry Jones announced on Sunday. According to reports, the wide receiver will also visit with the New York Giants soon.
Jones declined on Tuesday to comment on whether or not there have been talks with the free agent, but he did express his opinion that a player like Beckham would be beneficial to a team with a record of 7-3, such as the Cowboys.
