The star wide receiver joined the team on the field for his first practice of the year at The Star.
Lamb also spent time walking through the team facilities and receiving warm welcomes from everyone in the building, including Cowboys' executive vice president and chief brand officer Charlotte Jones, who Lamb also spoke to reporters and shed some light on his mental state during the training camp holdout and what it is like to now be a $136 million man.. "I can count on my two hands how many times I told my agent I'm ready to be out there. I know he kind of got tired of hearing it.""Quite honestly, it's still surreal to me," Lamb added. "A great moment. Obviously I'm happy for myself and my family. I appreciate the Jones family.
Lamb says that he is ready to suit up for the team's season opener, we'll just have to see just how in shape he is and whether the team ultimately puts him on a snap count.
