Lamb has not been with the Cowboys this offseason while he and his agent negotiated this contract with Dallas. However, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has been complimentary of the work Lamb did earlier in the offseason with quarterback Dak Prescott in order to prepare for this season.
Lamb has established himself as one of the very best wide receivers in the NFL over the first 4 seasons of his career. Lamb’s 2023 campaign was his best yet — a league-leading 135 receptions for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns — all career-highs.
Lamb is +800 to lead the NFL in receiving yards in 2024, per the latest lines from FanDuel. He finished 2nd in the league last season to Miami’s Tyreek Hill.
Per FanDuel, Lamb’s over/under for receiving yards in 2024 has been set at 1,325.5 yards.
