Jones then highlighted the team’s rare luxury at wide receiver, as the team currently boasts not one, but two number one receivers, Pickens and CeeDee Lamb. The Cowboys owner even added how exceptional it is to have two wideouts of this caliber while Dak Prescott is “probably the best that he’s ever been,” with other offensive weapons, including the running back group and tight ends, contributing as well.

So, when pressed on the possibility of Pickens demanding more money than Lamb, whose $136 million deal sets the benchmark, this is what Jerry said.

“Listen, there’s nothing that we can do. I know it’s fun, but there’s nothing that we can gain from speculating and conjecture. The bottom line is that we’re in good shape, we’ve built a trade so that we could have potentially our options.”

He continued by praising Pickens’ impact since arriving in Dallas;

“He’s lived and is playing better than we could have even anticipated… he’s an outstanding, let me emphasize this again, outstanding teammate. He brings energy to the team, even when he’s not making some of those great receptions.”

Pickens was traded to Dallas in May for a 2026 3rd-round pick and a 2027 5th-round pick. The WR is still on his rookie deal: four years, $6.75 million. Now, the buzz is his next contract could out-earn Lamb’s hefty extension, especially with Jones refusing to rule anything out.
