00:00K&C Masterpiece right here on 105.3 The Fan, where we got full-blown, big-time breaking
00:21news as we head to the C-Block.

00:38And moments ago, I mean, as we went to break, Kevin, Adam Schefter was the first one I saw
00:45report Cowboys and All-Pro wide receiver CeeDee Lamb reached an agreement today on a record
00:50four-year $136 million deal.
00:54Now makes him the second highest paid non-QB in the NFL.
00:57The deal includes a $38 million signing bonus, largest ever given to a wide receiver.
01:02And then he threw his agent's name in on the negotiation as well.
01:05Torrey Dandy of CAA negotiated the deal.
01:08Kevin, I do believe that is somewhere in the range of $34 million per year.
01:12$34 million per year.
01:13So only a million dollars per less than Justin Jefferson.
01:19All right.
01:20So there you go.
01:21That is CeeDee Lamb.
01:22And now, Kevin, now he's on the field.
01:24He can be back at practice.
01:26The hold-in, hold-out is done and he doesn't look like a chump like Jamar Chase, who already
01:32went to practice and didn't get paid.
01:34No, I'm just joking.
01:35Jamar Chase is fantastic.
01:36But like this is, this, we were, we've been kind of, Hey, it's going to happen very soon
01:41because A, the Cowboys don't want to not have him on the field.
01:46They were able to get good looks at all their backups and everything, but now it's time
01:50for the regular season to start.
01:52They want their starters prepared and ready to rock here and adding him back to this mix
01:57is absolutely huge.
01:58So there you go.
01:59Did it feel like, not really, cause like I wasn't going to believe it until if nothing
02:04happened like on Saturday, but did it feel like you were getting pretty close to the,
02:12I don't know if drop dead date is the right term in terms of knowing that he can be on
02:17the field and be full steam ahead against the Browns?
02:20Yes.
02:21No, that was, that was my biggest concern.
02:23I mean, quite honestly, it's still going to be because you can't replicate those things.
02:28So I still feel like there's going to be a little bit of, even for Dak and some of the
02:31guys that didn't start it, haven't any playing time.
02:34I think there's going to be some ramping up, some rust knocked off of this thing as they
02:38go here.
02:39I could be completely wrong, but everybody I've ever talked to says about three games
02:42is what it really takes to get back into game speed type.
02:46So to hope, hope that's a, that's the case there, hoping that it works out.
