Cowboys, CeeDee Lamb agree to four-year extension
According to multiple reports, Lamb and the Cowboys have agreed to a four-year contract extension to end the receiver's holdout.
The initial reports indicate Lamb's deal is worth $136 million, which includes $100 million guaranteed with a $38 million signing bonus. That means Lamb will get an average annual value of $34 million, which is just below the $35 million Justin Jefferson received earlier in the offseason.

But most experts agree that technological advancement, however buoyant, is no guarantee that everyone benefits.
