Before that, the Lions’ Amon-Ra St. Brown and the Eagles’ A.J. Brown also eclipsed at least $30 million in average annual value this offseason, joining the Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill as receivers to be in that exclusive company.
Given Dallas’ lethargy in extending Lamb, the price has now augmented, likely leaving owner Jerry Jones to pay the star at least $32 million per year — which would tie or exceed Brown for second at the position.
The Cowboys are also mired in an ongoing extension quagmire surrounding quarterback Dak Prescott, who enters 2024 as an impending free agent.
Under the guidance of the elite quarterback-receiver tandem, Dallas finished second in expected points added per play and ended with the highest-scoring offense in football.
Despite offensive explosiveness and a stout defense, the No. 1-seed Cowboys shockingly fell to the No. 7-seed Green Bay Packers in the NFC Divisional Round.
The 2024 season will likely be a make-or-break one in Dallas, with head coach Mike McCarthy’s seat even warmer after regularly underachieving during the postseason — and likely with Prescott and/or Lamb slated to depart at the year’s end.
