Parsons on Lamb’s $136 Million Deal: Two Words That Could EXPLODE the Cowboys’ Locker Room!
Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons has weighed in on teammate CeeDee Lamb’s massive new contract, and his two-word reaction is already sending shockwaves through the NFL! Did he think Lamb deserved the money, or was he hinting at jealousy over his own upcoming payday?
### “Earned Every Dollar”
Parsons didn’t hold back when asked about Lamb’s four-year, $136 million extension. “Congratulations to my man CeeDee Lamb,” Parsons said on his “The Edge with Micah Parsons” podcast. “Congratulations on your bread, **you earned every dollar**”[1][2].
Parsons added that he “couldn’t be happier” for Lamb, who he considers “one of the best dudes in the locker room” and “one of the best players on our team”[1][2].
Was Parsons Throwing Shade?
While Parsons’ words seem supportive, some are wondering if there’s more to the story. Parsons himself is due for a contract extension, and with Lamb now the second-highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, the pressure is on for Parsons to land an even bigger deal[1].
Could Parsons’ seemingly innocent comment be a subtle way of reminding the Cowboys’ front office of his own value? Is he hinting that *he* deserves even more than Lamb?
Lamb’s Historic Deal
CeeDee Lamb’s new contract is nothing short of historic. The deal includes a $38 million signing bonus and $100 million guaranteed[1]. Lamb is coming off a season where he led the league with 135 receptions for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns[1].
### Dak’s Deal Next?
With Lamb’s contract situation resolved, the Cowboys now turn their attention to quarterback Dak Prescott, who is also seeking a long-term extension[1]. Prescott has said he’s “a fan” of both Lamb and Parsons getting “top-dollar deals”[2].
The Cowboys have a lot of money to spend over the next year if they want to keep their core players. Will they be able to afford to pay everyone what they’re worth? Or will Parsons’ two-word reaction spark a locker room controversy that could derail their Super Bowl hopes?
