I don't know of any teams that really can pay two top receivers top of the market, so that's gonna be a real difficult situation as we move forward.

Lamb locked through 2028, but Cowboys face cap pressure keeping two elite receivers.

Lamb is locked into a four-year deal through the 2028 season, securing his long-term future with Dallas. However, Cowboys COO Stephen Jones expressed uncertainty about the team's ability to retain both Lamb and George Pickens long-term, noting that few teams can afford two top receivers at market rates. Jones stated: "I don't know of any teams that really can pay two top receivers top of the market, so that's gonna be a real difficult situation as we move forward." Only three teams entering 2026 pay two receivers at least $25 million AAV—Cincinnati, Detroit, and Dallas—suggesting Lamb's presence may create financial constraints for the franchise.
