As Prescott looks at potential free agency, Lamb expressed his desire to continue the partnership with his quarterback. He said Jerry Jones also wants Prescott to return, and he wants to see a deal come together so the focus can be on football.

“You look at our numbers together, they’re at the top of the charts,” Lamb said, via The Athletic’s Jon Machota. “I have no doubt that they’re gonna get a deal done. We all know that I want Dak here. Jerry wants Dak here too, so let’s just get this under control and kill the speculation.”

Lamb and the Cowboys came to an agreement that made the former Oklahoma star the second-highest paid non-quarterback in the NFL behind Justin Jefferson. His extension will be for four years and $136 million, to go with a $38 million signing bonus – the largest ever for a wide receiver.

The agreement ended Lamb’s holdout, which saw him miss the first three preseason games while awaiting a new deal. As for how the mood around the building changed, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy summed things up perfectly.

“I was excited, but I think just like anything your being updated frequently on where things stand,” McCarthy said, via ESPN’s Todd Archer. “I was anticipating a sooner or later type situation today, so, yeah, it was good to get this done. I think we’re all relieved.”

As for Prescott’s negotiations, those took a few turns this offseason. The quarterback market changed quickly as Trevor Lawrence, Tua Tagovailoa and Jordan Love signed lucrative contracts. All the while, Prescott is looking at potential free agency if a deal doesn’t come together, although the former Mississippi State star indicated things are going well.

“Good conversations are going on,” Prescott said. “Lots of good things are going on there. I’ve got a lot of confidence in my guys and these guys in getting things done.”
