Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is not expected to attend offseason training activities barring a lucrative contract extension, the Dallas Morning News reported Monday.

The Cowboys begin the voluntary portion of their spring workout program on April 15.

Lamb, who turned 25 on Monday, is due to earn $17.99 million under a fifth-year team option in 2024. That's a bargain-basement price for a player coming off a record-setting All-Pro season in 2023.

Lamb broke Michael Irvin's single-season franchise marks with an NFL-high 135 catches and 1,749 yards, adding a career-high 12 touchdown catches in 17 starts.

The three-time Pro Bowler's agent, Tory Dandy, did not respond to the Morning News' request for comment on whether Lamb would join his teammates next week.

The Cowboys will hold six OTA practices starting on May 24. Player attendance is not mandatory until the June 4-6 minicamp.

Drafted 17th overall in 2020, Lamb has racked up 395 catches for 5,145 yards and 32 touchdowns in 66 games (61 starts) for the Cowboys.
