The NFL season is technically underway but its first real Sunday is still an hour from kicking off.

Before it though, headlines are certainly being made across the league.

Perhaps the biggest is the massive contract that quarterback Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys is about to sign.

According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, a record deal is headed the way of the former Mississippi State Bulldogs star.

Here we go! The #Cowboys and star QB Dak Prescott are finalizing a record-breaking four-year, $240 million contract extension before today’s opener, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

4 years, $240 Million for Dak Prescott

I wasn't a math major by any means but I think I can do the math on this one.

Divide the 240 by four and get 60.

As in $60 million a year for Prescott, and he earned every penny of it.
