Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb agreed to a record-breaking four-year deal on Monday, multiple outlets reported.

The four-year, $136 million contract extension includes a $38 million signing bonus, the largest ever for a wide receiver, per the reports. NFL Network reported the deal includes $100 million guaranteed.

The $34 million average annual value trails only Minnesota Vikings wideout Justin Jefferson among non-quarterbacks, per Spotrac.

Lamb, 25, earned All-Pro first-team honors and set franchise records in 2023 with 135 receptions for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns.

The three-time Pro Bowl selection had been a no-show at Cowboys training camp while lobbying for a new deal. Under his rookie deal, he would have played under a $17.99 million fifth-year option this season.

Star pass rusher Micah Parsons and quarterback Dak Prescott also are looking to get restructured contracts, and the team has said it intends to get those deals done.

The Cowboys drafted Lamb 17th overall in 2020. He has amassed 395 catches for 5,145 yards and 32 touchdowns in 66 games (61 starts).
