Jerry Jones is running out of time to finish the controversy around <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> and CeeDee Lamb. With only two weeks remaining before the start of a new season, the owner has to increase the pace in both negotiations.



Prescott seems more willing to wait and become an unrestricted free agent in 2025. On the other side, Lamb was in a hurry as other wide receivers are getting huge paychecks in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>.



If the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> want to make a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> run, two stars without a new deal could produce a lot of trouble and uncertainty inside the locker room. Jones might be ready to prevent that.



<h2>Will CeeDee Lamb become a free agent?</h2>



It’s important to emphasize that CeeDee Lamb had much less leverage than Dak Prescott. The wide receiver was entering the final year of his contract and Jerry Jones could put a franchise tag on him to keep him in 2025.


 

 


That’s why the tools for Lamb to pressure Jones have been missing training camp or hinting a possible desire to be traded. For example, that controversial photo on social media with Hollywood Brown who is currently playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.

<h2>Will the Dallas Cowboys give CeeDee Lamb a contract extension?</h2>



Yes. According to a report from Adam Schefter, CeeDee Lamb and the Dallas Cowboys already reached an agreement after Jerry Jones fulfilled the final key request from the player. Lamb had to be close of being the highest paid wide receiver in NFL history.



“Cowboys and All-Pro WR CeeDee Lamb reached agreement on a record four-year, $136 million deal that now makes him the second highest-paid non-QB in NFL history. The deal includes a $38 million signing bonus, the largest ever given to a wide receiver.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/dak-prescott-threatens-to-leave-dallas-cowboys"></div>


A few weeks ago, Justin Jefferson got a four-year, $140 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings. So, the scenario was clear for Jerry Jones. At least $34 million per year for Lamb to sign.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> are making headlines for the wrong reasons before the 2024 season. It’s been a never ending story which includes <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a>, CeeDee Lamb and Jerry Jones.



Both stars want to receive historic contract extensions. Prescott’s situation is more complicated as he will become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 with no chance for the Cowboys to use a franchise tag.



Meanwhile, after many star wide receivers are getting big money, Lamb wants to be the highest paid player at the position in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>. The benchmark is Justin Jefferson and that four-year, $140 million contract with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings">Minnesota Vikings</a>.



<h2>DeMarcus Lawrence talks about Dak Prescott controversy</h2>



In this scenario, the big question for the Dallas Cowboys is how unhappy star players could have an impact inside the locker room. DeMarcus Lawrence had an answer for that.


 

 


“I say control what you can control. If it’s a distraction, eliminate it. If you can’t, run through it. That comes with our territory, being a Cowboy. Jerry Jones actually invites it. So, if you’re not used to it, you better get used to it fast.”

<h2>Will the Dallas Cowboys win the Super Bowl?</h2>



The Dallas Cowboys haven’t won the Super Bowl in almost three decades and they’re currently not favorites to hoist the trophy. Other teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, the San Francisco 49ers or the Ravens are ahead of them.



Nevertheless, Lawrence believes it’s possible. “I haven’t reached my goal in the NFL yet. My goal is the Super Bowl. I feel like that passion won’t leave until the body leaves first.”

DeMarcus Lawrence weighs in on Dallas Cowboys controversy between Dak Prescott and Jerry Jones

Jerry Jones has admitted that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> and CeeDee Lamb are still far from reaching an agreement to give the star a contract extension. The wide receiver wants to be the highest paid player at the position in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>.



“You say, ‘Well, why do you keep talking? Why don’t you do something?’ Again, as in anything,&nbsp;it takes both of you there at the same time. But I believe it’s got the proper amount of everything, emphasis and importance, for everybody involved here and we’ll see how it goes.”



It’s important to remember that Jones’ priority is <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> as the quarterback wants a new deal or he could become a free agent in 2025. In their quest for a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, the Cowboys are in a lot of trouble.



<h2>How much money does CeeDee Lamb want from Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



A few days ago, many reports confirmed that Jerry Jones offered CeeDee Lamb a new contract which will pay the wide receiver $33 million per year. The star rejected that proposal.


 

 


Lamb wants to be highest paid player at the position and the current benchmark is Justin Jefferson thanks to a four-year, $140 million deal with the Minnesota Vikings. $35 million per year was supposed to be the target for the Cowboys.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jones-shuts-down-another-quarterback-controversy-with-dallas-cowboys"></div>


<h2>Will CeeDee Lamb become a free agent?</h2>



However, things could get worse soon for the Dallas Cowboys as Jerry Jones keeps waiting for things to unfold. Now, new information from ESPN points out Ja’Marr Chase might get a new contract with the Cincinnati Bengals.



The number will be crushing for Jerry Jones’ intentions with Lamb as Chase could get a four-year, $160 million contract. That would be $40 million annually with $120 million guaranteed in the deal. By the way, Ja’Marr has two years left on his current agreement.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


Meanwhile, CeeDee Lamb is entering the final year of his contract and the Cowboys have the chance to use a franchise tag on him in 2025. However, if the Bengals pay that massive money to Chase early, Jerry Jones could be in a lot of trouble as the new number to strike a deal could be those $40 million annually. Time is becoming very costly for America’s Team.

Jerry Jones and Dallas Cowboys are in huge trouble with CeeDee Lamb thanks to contract update

NFL News: Jerry Jones gets terrible contract update for the future of CeeDee Lamb with Dallas Cowboys

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> have an explosive offense led by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> and CeeDee Lamb. However, the other side of the ball has been crucial for recent playoff losses, including last season’s shocker against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a>.



As a consequence, Dan Quinn was fired as defensive coordinator of the team and, after many rumors about who would take that place, Mike Zimmer was the chosen one.



Even with the change, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> was surprised about the lack of moves made by Jerry Jones in order to improve that unit. Now, the moves are coming trying to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>.



<h2>Who have the Dallas Cowboys signed in free agency?</h2>



According to a report from Mike Garafolo, the Dallas Cowboys will sign defensive tackle Linval Joseph. A reunion with Mike Zimmer as they worked together in the Minnesota Vikings.


 

 


“The Cowboys are finalizing a deal with DT Linval Joseph, as Josina Anderson reported. Source says he gets $2.5 million guaranteed and can earn up to $4 million in his reunion with DC Mike Zimmer.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-ceedee-lamb-has-big-answer-for-jerry-jones-after-new-contract-offer-by-dallas-cowboys"></div>


Linval Joseph was selected by the Giants with the No.46 overall pick in the 2010 Draft. Following four seasons in New York, the Vikings signed him to a five-year, $31 million contract.



He has also played for other teams such as the Los Angeles Chargers, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Buffalo Bills. Joseph joins other recent moves on defense for the Cowboys such as Carl Lawson and Jordan Phillips.

Jerry Jones makes big splash for Cowboys by signing former star of Minnesota Vikings

Jerry Jones has &#039;found&#039; ideal quarterback to replace Dak Prescott with Dallas Cowboys

Jerry Jones signs former Minnesota Vikings star to help Dallas Cowboys - Bolavip US

NFL News: Jerry Jones signs former Minnesota Vikings star to help Dallas Cowboys

Jerry Jones and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> have a huge problem at the quarterback position. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> is comfortable waiting to become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 unless a record breaking contract extension appears on the table.



Jones is against the ropes. When Trevor Lawrence and Jordan Love got new deals of $55 million per year with the Jaguars and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a>, Prescott got a massive reason to be patient.



In the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>, a lot of teams are willing to make Dak the highest paid player in history. The quarterback put MVP numbers last season and, with the right supporting cast, he could win a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>.



<h2>Jerry Jones puts an end to quarterback controversy with Cowboys</h2>



Although all the attention is on Dak Prescott, Jerry Jones has also been under scrutiny for a young player who, not many years ago, was supposed to be star in the NFL.


 

 


Trey Lance was drafted by the 49ers in 2021 with the No.3 overall pick after a massive trade package with the Miami Dolphins. San Francisco gave in exchange three first-round picks to get him.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


In the end, when Brock Purdy emerged taking advantage of Lance’s injury, Trey had no place with Kyle Shanahan. Surprisingly, the Dallas Cowboys jumped in to sign him.



<h2>Who will be the backup quarterback of Dak Prescott with Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



After a full season with the Dallas Cowboys, the big question is if Trey Lance could be the future in case Dak Prescott leaves America’s Team. Right now, that’s almost an impossible dream.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-ceedee-lamb-has-big-answer-for-jerry-jones-after-new-contract-offer-by-dallas-cowboys"></div>


In fact, many fans and experts believes Cooper Rush should get the No.2 spot and, if things doesn’t get better, Lance should be out of the Cowboys. This was Jerry Jones’ answer before the final game of preseason about the situation.



“I would like to see us really be able to have our quarterback depth. I would like to see him get some more work in this weekend, that would be number-one. Do I need to see any more from Trey Lance? The answer is yes, but he’s going to be on the 53.”

Jerry Jones puts an end to big quarterback controversy with Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott threatens to leave Dallas Cowboys in the near future

NFL News: Dallas Cowboys&#039; legend asks Jerry Jones to get rid of Dak Prescott

Jerry Jones shuts down another quarterback controversy with Dallas Cowboys - Bolavip US

Jerry Jones is losing his patience after an exhausting offseason with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a>. CeeDee Lamb and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> want big contract extensions, but, the team’s front office hasn’t reached the number expected by both stars.



Prescott’s situation is the most complicated because the quarterback has all the leverage to work with. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 and Jones cannot stop him as the franchise isn’t an option.



Although the controversial owner believes Dak is the key to win a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, he is not willing to make him the highest paid player ever in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>. Time is running out.



<h2>Why Dak Prescott hasn’t signed with the Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



Jerry Jones showed his frustration with what’s happening in the NFL. According to the owner, more players aren’t willing to respect their current contracts asking for big money boosts earlier than expected. It’s important to remember that Dak Prescott is under contract for the 2024 season.


 

 


“One of the things that I’d like for the fans to really understand is that nine times out of 10, these are existing contracts that you have in place. And you should be able to operate under those but we’ve gotten it now in the NFL, other teams are dealing with it too, where with time left on the contract you still might have a contract discussion. That’s what we’re doing. But none of us, players or teams, want it to hurt the preparation or the likelihood of playing at your best opening day.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-ceedee-lamb-has-big-answer-for-jerry-jones-after-new-contract-offer-by-dallas-cowboys"></div>


<h2>Will Dak Prescott become a free agent?</h2>



Yes. If Jerry Jones doesn’t reach an agreement soon with Dak Prescott, the quarterback has a free path to become an unrestricted free agent in 2025. His current deal prevents a franchise tag and also gives the star player a no trade clause.



<h2>How much money Dak Prescott wants?</h2>



Jordan Love and Trevor Lawrence reset the quarterback market at $55 million per year. Considering Dak Prescott’s accolades, the Dallas Cowboys will lave to pay at least $60 million annually to keep him.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/dallas-cowboys-legend-asks-jerry-jones-to-trade-dak-prescott"></div>


If they don’t do it, there’s no doubt that in 2025 a lot of teams will be willing to give Dak that money. Of course, the only risk if the Prescott let’s the 2024 season play out is injury.

NFL News: Jerry Jones shows frustration with Dak Prescott in Dallas Cowboys contract talks

Jerry Jones and CeeDee Lamb are in the middle of a very complicated negotiation in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>. The wide receiver wants to be highest player at the position, but the controversial owner wants to see results on the field first.



All this situation is a direct consequence of the Cowboys’ performances in the playoffs where they have only won two games in the last decade. In 2023, no one expected a shocking loss at home against the Green Bay Packers. 



That’s why the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> are hesitant to show the big money to Lamb, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> and Micah Parsons. Although the full core group of stars is needed to reach the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, Jones isn’t fully convinced because of the latest disappointments.



<h2>Will CeeDee Lamb become a free agent?</h2>



Jerry Jones has a great advantage. CeeDee Lamb is under contract in 2024 and, when the deal expires, the franchise tag will solve all his problems in 2025. Of course, that doesn’t mean the player will be happy.


 

 


When Justin Jefferson received a four-year, $140 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings, the top wide receivers in the NFL wanted a part of that big cake. For example, Tyreek Hill immediately got a restructured contract from the Miami Dolphins.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jones-strikes-back-after-ceedee-lamb-turned-down-new-contract-offer-from-dallas-cowboys"></div>


So, as the stars keep signing massive deals, Lamb is still waiting for that record breaking amount of money earned on the field as one of the best players in the league.



<h2>Will the Dallas Cowboys give CeeDee Lamb a contract extension?</h2>



This week, Jerry Jones tried to calm down the situation by saying there are ‘promising talks’ with CeeDee Lamb. However, in that same sequence, the owner also blamed the wide receiver for not accepting his latest offer.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


“You say, ‘Well, why do you keep talking? Why don’t you do something?’ Again, as in anything, it takes both of you there at the same time. But I believe it’s got the proper amount of everything, emphasis and importance, for everybody involved here and we’ll see how it goes.”



According to many reports, Jones already made an offer of $33 million per year to Lamb, but, the wide receiver won’t accept less that $35 million annually. So, even though the owner says talks are in ‘good shape’, the truth is CeeDee hasn’t signed and the season starts in just two weeks. As we’ve already mentioned, Jerry holds the leverage thanks to the current deal.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a> face a crucial decision regarding the future of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ceedee-lamb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CeeDee Lamb</a>. Following the wideout’s holdout, team owner <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jerry Jones</a> has issued a final statement on the possibility of a new contract for Lamb.



CeeDee Lamb is undeniably one of the most talented wide receivers in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> today. Since joining the team in 2020, he has significantly bolstered the Cowboys’ offense, forming an impressive partnership with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dak Prescott</a>.



However, Lamb’s future in Dallas seems uncertain. The wide receiver is seeking a lucrative contract extension, but it appears the Cowboys are hesitant to meet his demands.



<h2>Jerry Jones clears the air on CeeDee Lamb’s holdout</h2>



Tension has been building around the Cowboys in recent weeks. Several players are seeking contract extensions from the NFC East team, with CeeDee Lamb being one of the star players still awaiting a new deal.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-rumors-chances-of-contract-extension-between-wr-ceedee-lamb-and-the-dallas-cowboys-increase"></div>


According to reports, Lamb is aiming to become the highest-paid wide receiver in the league. While the Cowboys are keen on retaining him, they also need to address the contract situations of other key players, making it difficult to meet all of Lamb’s demands.



Throughout the summer, both sides have engaged in talks for an extension, but no agreement has been reached. Now, Jerry Jones has issued a final statement on the matter, urging Lamb to end his holdout and accept the offer the team has put forward.

“I don’t mean that to be insensitive to our fans or to CeeDee, but we’re in good shape there and we are having promising talks,” Jones said, via ESPN. “You say, ‘Well, why do you keep talking? Why don’t you do something?’ Again, as in anything, it takes both of you there at the same time. But I believe it’s got the proper amount of everything — emphasis, importance — for everybody involved here, and we’ll see how it goes.



“And when I say that, it doesn’t sound too promising. The facts are that I believe we’ll come together. I don’t want to speak for him. That’s what I’m trying not to do. But we wouldn’t have offered him what we’ve offered him if we didn’t want him to be here.”



<h2>What is CeeDee Lamb’s market value?</h2>



CeeDee Lamb was selected by the Dallas Cowboys with the 17th overall pick in the 2020 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl-draft" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL Draft</a>. His rookie contract was a four-year deal worth $14 million, fully guaranteed, with a signing bonus of $7.7 million.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jones-strikes-back-after-ceedee-lamb-turned-down-new-contract-offer-from-dallas-cowboys"></div>


Now, Lamb is aiming to become the highest-paid wide receiver in the league. According to Spotrac, he could potentially sign a contract that would pay him $34 million per year, just $1 million less annually than <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/justin-jefferson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Justin Jefferson</a>.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ceedee-lamb">CeeDee Lamb</a>‘s contract situation with the Dallas Cowboys is giving plenty to talk about around the NFL, with the wideout and Jerry Jones involved in a tug-of-war about an extension. Recently, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bill-belichick">Bill Belichick</a> has shared some eye-opening insight into negotiating new contracts in the league.



During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday, the former New England Patriots head coach and de-facto general manager explained how tough it is for a franchise to deal with these kinds of situations. And since Belichick explained how he dealt with potential holdouts, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jones</a> may take note of that to handle Lamb’s situation.



“The club’s options are limited,” Belichick said. “As a coach you just have to take the cards the way they’re played, try make the best of it. My position, we’re not gonna negotiate with you if you’re not here. Come here, work hard, we’ll talk to you. You try to find a way to compromise.“



Apart from Lamb, Jones is also dealing with Dak Prescott entering the 2024 NFL season on an expiring contract on the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>. Belichick, however, believes it’s always best to wait until the final year to enter contract extension talks.

“When you start renegotiating with two years to go, you could have a 50-man parade coming in with two years to go who want to renegotiate. Our position was always do it the last year,” Belichick added.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-bill-belichick-has-a-big-warning-for-andy-reid-patrick-mahomes-chiefs"></div>






<h2>Bill Belichick says QBs should set the example</h2>



“Every situation’s different, every team’s different. Each guy, each agent has their own strategy for what they think It’s best for them,” continued Belichick, who also stressed the importance of the quarterbacks leading the way.



The six-time Super Bowl champion mentioned Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady as two good examples of great quarterbacks putting the team first, pushing others to also prioritize working hard and winning over getting paid.



“When you start at the top with a guy like Mahomes or Brady who do everything to make sure there’s no issues with their contract, then that makes it a little bit easier with everybody else,” Belichick said. “And everybody else can respect the overall team concept and the team goals—not saying they wanna play for nothing, that’s not the point—, try to find some way to compromise to work it out. When Mahomes is out there working out hard, Brady is out there working, the other players want to be there too, so let’s say it’s a better solution when the quarterback’s not part of the problem.“

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> hasn’t signed a contract extension with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> and the quarterback might become an unrestricted free agent in 2025. It’s been a really complicated negotiation with Jerry Jones.



Although the future is uncertain for the star player, Dak wants to be a Cowboy for life. However, that’s not only up to him as the team’s front office has the responsibility of making him the highest paid player in history.



If the Dallas Cowboys don’t do it, many teams in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> will be ready to jump in to lock Prescott as the key factor to become a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> contender. It’s a crucial moment for America’s Team.



<h2>Dak Prescott has amazing gesture with Dallas Cowboys fan</h2>



Before the second preseason game against the Raiders, Dak Prescott had already sent a message of confidence for thousands of Dallas Cowboys’ fan about his contract situation.


 

 


“I enjoy being a Cowboy 1000 percent. I enjoy living in Dallas and enjoy everything about it. Conversations are going well, but I’m thankful to be where I am right now and that’s here.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


That feeling was demonstrated on the field at Las Vegas when the quarterback had a very special gesture with a young girl. He took all the time needed to sign a jersey, socks and take a picture with her. In fact, Prescott sent a message which was applauded by Cowboys Nation. 



“It’s ok. Take your time (to take photos). I’m good. This is my game day right here. I love this energy. I love it. You’re welcome. I need this energy every game day.”

<h2>Will Dak Prescott be a free agent?</h2>



Dak Prescott is entering the final year of his contract with the Dallas Cowboys and, if Jerry Jones doesn’t show him the money, the quarterback will be an unrestricted free agent in 2025.



There’s no way to use a franchise tag on him and the star also has a no trade clause. Furthermore, considering the market was reset at $55 million per year by Trevor Lawrence and Jordan Love, Jones will probably need to pay $60 million per year to keep Dak or the player could wait and test free agency in a few months.

NFL News: Dak Prescott has awesome gesture with Dallas Cowboys fan amid contract dispute with Jerry Jones

CeeDee Lamb and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> are putting all the pressure on Jerry Jones. In the current biggest story in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>, the controversial owner has decided to bring a lot of uncertainty to the franchise.



Instead of delivering contract extensions earlier for his core group of stars, Jones seems to be convinced that the path to follow is let the 2024 season play out. Then, depending on the results, finally choose who gets the money first.



However, that could be a huge problem in the near future for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a>. The complicated negotiations have emerged as a distraction before the start of another long awaited <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> run. If your top players are unhappy, the risk might be too high.



<h2>Will CeeDee Lamb become a free agent?</h2>



CeeDee Lamb won’t become a free agent soon with the Dallas Cowboys. The star is entering the final year of his contract and, in 2025, Jerry Jones can put a franchise tag on him.


 

 


Nevertheless, as the market has been very active in the last few weeks, talks are still ongoing to extend the deal and Lamb already turned down the latest offer from Jones. It was a contract of $33 million per year to stay with the Dallas Cowboys. However, the wide receiver rejected the proposal as he wants to be the top paid player at the position.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


The benchmark is Justin Jefferson who just got a four-year, $140 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings. Even after another standoff by Lamb, Jerry Jones had an answer for the star player in an interview with 105.3 The Fan before the preseason game against the Raiders. 



“You never know. You have to get together and you have to get together on a number. I don’t know a number and he doesn’t know a number. We have to get that done. We are having the same kind of talks that we’ve been having. I’m not worried about a target date for the contract. I’m not worried about his shape. I’m glad he’s not out here risking some injury.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-ceedee-lamb-has-big-answer-for-jerry-jones-after-new-contract-offer-by-dallas-cowboys"></div>


<h2>Will the Dallas Cowboys give CeeDee Lamb a contract extension?</h2>



Jerry Jones is willing to give CeeDee Lamb a contract extension, but, at the moment, the owner doesn’t seem convinced to do it surpassing Justin Jefferson’s deal. 



As a consequence, Lamb won’t sign any proposal under $35 million per year and the conflict could go on even during the 2024 season. It’s important to remember that Jerry Jones also has to pay Dak Prescott with huge implications for the salary cap.

Jerry Jones has big answer for CeeDee Lamb after star turned down new contract offer from Dallas Cowboys

Jerry Jones strikes back after CeeDee Lamb turned down new contract offer from Dallas Cowboys - Bolavip US

CeeDee Lamb is trying to become the highest paid wide receiver in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> history. The big problem is that Jerry Jones also has to deliver a massive paycheck to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a>.



As a consequence, negotiations have stalled and Lamb made a first move to put pressure on the team’s front office by not reporting to training camp. However, Jones doesn’t seem to be in a rush.



If the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> want to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, they have to keep their core group of stars in the near future. Although in practical terms Prescott, Lamb and Micah Parsons are locked for the 2024 season, all those players wish to see the big money.



<h2>Will the Dallas Cowboys give CeeDee Lamb a contract extension?</h2>



According to a report from Mike Garafolo, the Dallas Cowboys made a new offer to CeeDee Lamb. It’s a huge contract of approximately $33 million per year in order to convince the wide receiver.


 

 


Nevertheless, as Garafolo explained, that’s not a benchmark which satisfies Lamb. He wants to be the top paid player at his position. In this scenario, the number has to be of at least $35 million per year considering Justin Jefferson signed a four-year, $140 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings. Final answer.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


“You saw reports that the Cowboys and CeeDee Lamb met to try to solve this thing a couple of days ago. It did not happen (new contract signed). My understanding is the offer is around $33 million and for Lamb that’s not good enough. The top of the market is $35 million with Justin Jefferson. So, he wants that to come up and the structure needs to be worked on as well. Cash flow and guarantees.”



<h2>Will CeeDee Lamb become a free agent?</h2>



No. CeeDee Lamb is under contract for the 2024 season as part of the final year of his rookie deal. Then, in 2025, the Dallas Cowboys have the option of using a franchise tag on the wide receiver. That’s a big reason why Jerry Jones isn’t pressured at all.

CeeDee Lamb has big answer for Jerry Jones after new contract offer by Dallas Cowboys - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> was one of the best quarterbacks in the 2023 season with other names such as Lamar Jackson and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a>. However, a surprising loss in the playoffs against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a> has prevented him of getting a well deserved contract extension.



It’s a very controversial situation as other quarterbacks with less accolades have already signed big deals resetting the market at $55 million per year. Trevor Lawrence, Tua Tagovalioa and Jordan Love.



Of course, the pending assignment for Prescott in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> is to reach the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>. That’s why Jerry Jones is hesitant of giving him a record breaking contract with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a>.



<h2>Will Dak Prescott sign a contract extension with the Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



During almost every press conference in training camp, Dak Prescott has been asked about how the negotiations are going and if he feels any pressure to let play out the final year of his contract.


 

 


Every answer by Dak emphasizes that the quarterback is happy where he stands considering there’s no way the Dallas Cowboys can franchise tag him and there’s also a no trade clause. Absolutely open to all options.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


So, if Jerry Jones doesn’t put on the table more than $55 million per year, Prescott will become an unrestricted free agent in 2025 and a lot of teams could rise the bar all the way to $60 million.



<h2>Will Dak Prescott become a free agent?</h2>



Dak Prescott will become a free agent in 2025 and that’s why the star is waiting patiently for the final big contract of his career. The quarterback is 31-years old and this could be the last chance to get the big bag of money.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jones-has-found-shocking-replacement-for-dak-prescott-with-dallas-cowboys"></div>


Considering that scenario, a reporter asked Prescott if this could be the final stage of his career with the Cowboys and if retirement is an option looming when he signs that long awaited contract.



“I don’t know. I can’t say I’ve thought about that honestly (retirement) too much. I mean, I want to play. I don’t want injuries to be the reason I don’t play. That’s how I got my job. I’m trying to stay always healthy. I love those two guys (Cooper Rush and Trey Lance), but I don’t to want to give them an opportunity. That’s how I came up and I understand the nature of this business. I want retirement to be on my terms and not because my body said it was enough.”

NFL News: Dak Prescott reveals if he is in final years with Dallas Cowboys

As preseason games continue, the CeeDee Lamb saga with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> takes another turn. Owner and General Manager Jerry Jones has extended an offer to the WR that would position him among the highest-paid players at his position in the NFL.



On the eve of a new NFL season, Mike McCarthy’s squad continues their preseason preparations, aiming to reach peak performance and compete fiercely in the NFC East.



The ideal scenario for tackling an NFL season is having the entire roster available and, if possible, at full physical health. However, this is a challenge the coach continues to face, as some players have yet to see any action in the offseason due to unresolved contract situations.



The specific case in question, which has seen several chapters, involves none other than the Cowboys’ star WR, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ceedee-lamb">CeeDee Lamb</a>. The former Oklahoma Sooners standout remains firm in his stance that he will not participate in preseason practices until he receives a financial recognition in his new contract.

This is why, in recent hours, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> has presented Lamb with a new offer that would make him the second highest-paid receiver in the league, only behind the lucrative contract signed by Justin Jefferson with the Minnesota Vikings.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-reveals-the-reason-why-dallas-cowboys-wont-give-him-contract-extension"></div>


<h2>Current situation of CeeDee Lamb</h2>



The 25-year-old wide receiver hasn’t attended a single minute of the Cowboys’ offseason program, including training camp, as he holds out for a new contract ahead of the 2024 season, the final year of his rookie deal.



The star receiver for Dallas has long maintained that he will not participate in the offseason activities until he receives a significant increase in his contract.



The 2023 All-Pro led the NFL in catches (135), ranked second in receiving yards with 1,749, and third in receiving touchdowns (12).



<h2>Jerry Jones offered CeeDee Lamb a new contract</h2>



Although initially GM Jerry Jones was in no rush to resolve Lamb’s situation, things have begun to accelerate over time. According to the Dallas Morning News, the Cowboys offered Lamb slightly under $33 million per season.



This figure would place Lamb as the second-highest-paid receiver in the NFL based on average annual salary, just ahead of Eagles wideout A.J. Brown ($32 million APY) and just behind Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson ($35 million APY).



<h2>Coach McCarthy commented on Lamb’s situation</h2>



Someone who hasn’t stayed on the sidelines regarding Lamb’s situation is HC <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a>, who stated to the press: “It’s like whatever happens in fight club stays in fight club. Whatever happens in business is his business. Yeah, we have all the confidence in just the way he works that he’s going to come in here ready to go and when that time comes will pick up like he never left. … When I did see CeeDee and talked to him, I just said ‘hey, this is business, we’ll take care of the football when get here.’ I don’t want him to sweat that because he’s a workout fanatic. None of us are concerned about what he’s going to look like. He gets it. He’s in a business situation right now.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> is absolutely comfortable without a contract extension from the Dallas Cowboys. When the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a> dashed all their <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> hopes, the quarterback suddenly became the man to blame for Jerry Jones.



Even after putting MVP numbers, the owner decided Dak didn’t deserve a historic paycheck. However, when the market was reset by Trevor Lawrence and Jordan Love, the tide turned.



Now, Prescott has all the leverage as the most coveted player in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>. If the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> don’t show him the money, Prescott will have record breaking offers in 2025.



<h2>Will Dak Prescott sign a contract extension with Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



During an exclusive interview with Jori Epstein, Dak Prescott got real and acknowledged he knows perfectly well the reason why the Dallas Cowboys might not give him a contract extension.


 

 


“I’m free right now as in, where I am in life, what I’ve done here. Not what I’ve done here, but who I’ve been here. Understanding that sure, I’m deserving of the next contract. But then again, this game is judged off of winning the Super Bowl. And I understand people’s angst. Maybe their angst and me having not done that.”

<h2>Will Dak Prescott become a free agent?</h2>



Dak Prescott is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2025. The Dallas Cowboys cannot use a franchise tag and he also has a no trade clause. That’s why, if Jerry Jones doesn’t pay, the quarterback is ready to leave.



“Hey, if these people want to move on, it’s a business. But I know, as I said in the media, it’s a two-way street. Things have to be right from my end as well.”
