It has been 81 days since Justin Jefferson signed a contract extension with the Minnesota Vikings. Since then, the Dallas Cowboys and All-Pro wide receiver CeeDee Lamb have yet to agree on a new contract that would bring the star player closer to Jefferson’s four-year, $140 million figure. With 16 days left until the Week 1 game against the Cleveland Browns, things are starting to get really weird. Lamb’s trial period is expected to end when his agent Tony Dandy and the team speak this weekend.
Lamb did not participate in the team’s offseason program. With a return to the team imminent, fans may wonder how long it will take for Lamb to return to fitness. Fortunately, he is in private practice with a doctor in Florida. Alkeme Sports’ Sharif Tabbah and his offseason coach Delfonte Diamond. The Cowboys recently posted a practice video on Instagram documenting what he was doing. Kozy was not only trained at 5-star institutions. He and quarterback Dak Prescott have connected several times this season, synchronizing their chemistry during practices.
In Lamb’s absence, other receivers like Jalen Tolbert and Jalen Brooks have solidified their roles in this year’s offense with standout practices in training camp. Brandin Cooks has shown that this can be considered for other purposes as well. But Lamb is sparking the Cowboys, and they desperately need him if they want to play with their Super Bowl ambitions this season. If Lamb and his front office agreed to a new deal this weekend that would see the All-Pro in the building Monday morning, we might as well breathe a sigh of relief.
