Stephen A Smith Wants More Money Than Dak Prescott With His Next ESPN Contract
Stephen A Smith says that he deserves to be paid over $100 million by ESPN for his next contract and cited Dak Prescott's deal with the Dallas Cowboys as evidence of his market value. While speaking with Chris Wallace for the latest episode of his Max series, Smith discussed his future with the company as he's on the last year of his current deal.
"I'm not getting specific as it pertains to numbers, because only a fool discusses his own negotiations while negotiating," Smith began. "So I'm not going to go that far. What I would say to you is, I would ask, respectfully, pay attention to the industry. See what people are getting paid. See how much money they're making and what they're bringing to the table. Look at look at their ratings, look at their revenue that they're generating, and look at mine. And so we all want what the market bears. Dak Prescott just signed a contract for $240 million he's making 60 million a year."
