The Dallas Cowboys picked up the fifth-year option for wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, reports ESPN's Todd Archer.
The decision comes as no surprise. Lamb, the 17th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, led the Cowboys and set career highs with 107 receptions, 1,359 yards, and nine touchdown catches in 2022. The 24-year-old, who's entering his fourth season in the NFL, is now set to make $19.74 million in 2024, according to Spotrac.
The Oklahoma product caught 260 passes for 3,396 yards and 20 touchdowns across three seasons with the Cowboys. He headlines a solid 2020 draft class for Dallas that includes cornerback Trevon Diggs and center Tyler Biadasz, among others.
Lamb is the second first-round player from the 2020 draft to have his fifth-year option exercised alongside Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
