Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones spoke to reporters about the ongoing CeeDee Lamb contract negotiations and gave an eyebrow-raising comment about the talks.
Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones said over a week ago that the Dallas Cowboys made a new contract offer to star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.
It seemed like a positive update for Cowboys fans, but comments made by Jones after Thursday's joint practice with the Los Angeles Rams have raised some eyebrows. When asked about the ongoing contract talks with Lamb, Jones showed a complete lack of urgency to get things done. Jones showed no understanding of the rapidly increasing wide receiver market and the fact that waiting takes away any leverage the team has.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on contract talks with CeeDee Lamb: “I don’t have any urgency to get it done.” Lamb has shown that he does not have any intentions to report to the team without a new deal in place. The fact that the team's owner is publicly showing he doesn't value you or the impact you bring to the offense provides no incentive to change course and report to the team.And this only hurts the offense, specifically Dak Prescott, moving forward. Do we still wonder why fans aren't showing up to practices during training camp? Show some urgency, Jerry.
