It’s the latest in an offseason-long stalemate for Lamb and the team that selected him in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

The 25-year-old did not attend voluntary workouts or mandatory minicamp and has been a no-show at training camp, which makes him subject to daily fines. Lamb is set to play on the fifth-year option of his rookie deal, which means he can be fined $40,000 per day for each practice missed. He is due $17.9 million in 2024 on the option.

However, Lamb is on the heels of his third straight Pro Bowl campaign and also garnered his first All-Pro selection. His season included 135 receptions, which led the NFL, for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns — each of those career bests.

Thus, in an offseason rife with wide receivers hauling in huge paydays, Lamb wants his day, as well.

Lamb isn’t the only high-profile Cowboy due for a raise. He is one of three Dallas superstars in line for extensions, as Prescott is also headed into the final year of his current contract, and linebacker Micah Parsons certainly warrants a new deal that will be massive.

There’s no telling how much of Jones’ comments are posturing or not, but it would seem the Lamb holdout isn’t ending anytime soon.
