The Dallas Cowboys and star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb have agreed to a four-year, $136 million contract extension, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports, ending Lamb’s holdout and temporarily calming the waters around the team.
ESPN Sources: Cowboys and All-Pro WR CeeDee Lamb reached agreement today on a record four-year, $136 million deal that now makes him the second highest-paid non-QB in NFL history. The deal includes a $38 million signing bonus, the largest ever given to a wide receiver.

Lamb, 25, held out of Cowboys training camp while seeking a new contract more in line with top-end wide receiver money, which is exactly how he’s performed since being drafted in the first round in 2020. Last season, Lamb was named first-team All-Pro after catching 135 passes for 1,749 and 12 touchdowns, to go along with two rushing touchdowns.
He’s also a three-time Pro Bowler with three straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons, forming one of the NFL’s best quarterback-wide receiver combinations with Dak Prescott.
