Dan Orlovsky Explains How Cowboys Offense Would Be 'Nothing' Without CeeDee Lamb

The first game of the 2024 NFL season is weeks away and the Dallas Cowboys are still embroiled in all sorts of contract drama. Despite ongoing negotiations, it doesn't seem that the team will sign star quarterback Dak Prescott to an extension before he enters the final year of his deal. Of more concern is the fact that superstar wideout CeeDee Lamb hasn't showed up to training camp yet because he wants a new contract that the Cowboys are, apparently, loathe to give.

Lamb's teammates seem confident enough that he'll show up to compete in Week 1 regardless of what happens with his contract, but the longer Lamb stays away from team facilities the stronger the possibility grows that Dallas may have to start the season without his outstanding talents. Which would be a big problem in any universe but feels especially problematic for this year given Jones' constant assurances to fans that the Cowboys are "all-in" on winning a Super Bowl this year.
