NFL News: CeeDee Lamb warns the league about what’s coming with Dak Prescott and Dallas Cowboys

It felt like a long time coming for CeeDee Lamb to have his first practice with the Dallas Cowboys this offseason. Lamb had missed over 30 days of Cowboys practice, holding out for a long-term deal. After Lamb and Dallas agreed on a record-setting four-year, $136 million contract extension, it felt like a welcoming home party for the star wideout. But, with so much time missed on the field, there are concerns about whether or not Lamb will be up to speed on offense. Well, unless you’re Lamb, that is.
“Quite honestly, I don’t think it’s going to be a step behind at all,” Lamb said after his first Cowboys offseason practice. “I’m ready. I prepare for these moments. I played this game my whole life.”
Although Lamb feels confident in himself and his game, there’s still reason to worry. Holdouts can mean players are not in football shape, often leading to soft-tissue injuries. Both Lamb and the Cowboys wanted to avoid that scenario, so Lamb shared he’s been working behind the scenes while waiting for a new deal.
“Got some body armor on me, got a little more body armor, I can take a couple more hits,” he said. “I’m prepared for my opportunities.”
