Prior to this agreement, tensions between Lamb and the Cowboys had been escalating as the new NFL season approached, with Lamb holding out for a better contract. Despite his impressive 2023 season, which saw him record 135 receptions, 1,749 yards, and 12 touchdowns, negotiations had stalled.

Lamb was entering the final year of his rookie contract, set to earn $17.99 million under his fifth-year option. His recent social media posts highlighted his dedication, but the silence from the Cowboys’ management had left fans anxious. However, this new deal solidifies Lamb’s future with the Cowboys, securing his place as a cornerstone of their offence.
