Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb’s long wait for a new deal came to an end on Monday when he agreed to a four-year extension with the team.
Lamb’s new pact came after he held out of offseason work, training camp, and the preseason, so the questions about the wideout shifted from his contract status to his readiness to get on the field. Lamb was working out on his own throughout his impasse with the team, and he told reporters on Tuesday that “I feel like I’m not missing a beat” when it comes to being prepared to play.
Lamb Declares Himself “Ready to Go to Battle”
Lamb declared himself “ready to go to battle” and shared little doubt that he will be set to resume his prominent role in the offense in the season opener against the Browns.
“Quite honestly, I don’t think it’s gonna be a step behind, at all — I’m ready,” Lamb said, via the team’s website. “I’ve played this game my whole life. I gotta get bumped a little bit. Those are things, contact violence, but I trained for those. I feel like I’m more prepared than ever.”
Clock Ticking Towards Browns Clash
It’s a short window before that matchup with Cleveland, but it doesn’t sound like there’s much reason to believe the Cowboys will have to make plans to play without their star pass catcher in the opener.
- **Four-year extension** signed
- Held out of offseason work, training camp, and preseason
- Trained on his own, feels no loss of readiness
- Declared himself: “Ready to go to battle”
Lamb’s enthusiasm is contagious, as he compares himself to a warrior ready for battle, emphasizing the rigorous training he’s undergone. "Contact violence," as he calls it, is something he’s prepared for — a gladiator in Cowboys’ uniform, ready to charge onto the field.
As the Cowboys prepare for the season opener against the Browns, they can rest easy knowing their star receiver is back and brimming with confidence. Prepare yourselves for a season that’s bound to be filled with electrifying plays and nail-biting moments, as CeeDee Lamb is clearly ready to light up the gridiron.
