CeeDee Lamb Offers Brutal One-Word Response Following Jerry Jones’ Strange Comments About The Cowboys WR’s Future In Dallas

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver had a terse, one-word reaction after a reporter revealed what team owner Jerry Jones had to say about his contract negotiations. 

Lamb, who is holding out for a new deal, is not happy with the Cowboys right now and has removed the words “America’s Team” from his bio on X/Twitter this week following claims from Jones that there’s no urgency to agree an extension with him. 

Lamb had a career year in 2023, recording 135 receptions for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns. He is heading into the final year of his rookie contract, with his fifth-year option set to pay him $17.9 million, which is in stark contrast to the $140 million extension Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson was handed this offseason.

The Cowboys star is staying away from the team amid the contract talks, but Jones told reporters that there has been progress.

“We’re getting great work [done] and making real progress,” he said, per Cowboys reporter Nick Harris. “I don’t think [we’re] losing a step with where we are now.”

Quick clarification:

Question was phrased, “Is there a sense of urgency as the preseason begins to get something done?”

Jerry Jones: “No.”

Dak Prescott Needs Jerry Jones To Get Things Moving With CeeDee Lamb

Jones was pressed on the matter as reporters wanted to know why he wasn’t in a hurry.

“Why? I just … I went to high school. I went to college. I don’t know why I said it,” he replied, according to Fort Worth Star-Telegram’s Clarence Hill Jr. “I don’t have a sense of urgency getting it done. Give any reason you want.”

Even if Jerry Jones isn’t in a hurry, Dak Prescott can’t wait for the Cowboys to sort things out with his teammate. 

“I know y’all want to ask, I got urgency for it to happen,” the quarterback told the press.

Dak is negotiating for an extension of his own, though he isn’t holding out.
