CeeDee Lamb's Contract Standoff with Cowboys Escalates

As negotiations stall, teammates and management express confidence in a resolution before the season opener.

  • CeeDee Lamb seeks a contract extension similar to top NFL receivers, holding out for up to $35 million annually.
  • Cowboys owner Jerry Jones initially downplayed the urgency of a deal, causing tension with Lamb.
  • Teammates, including Micah Parson, assert Lamb will join the team by Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns.
  • Lamb's holdout has led to over $1 million in fines, though these could be rescinded once a deal is reached.
  • Cowboys management plans to heavily involve Lamb in the offense, targeting him 12-15 times per game.
