Cowboys' WR1 with five straight 1,000-yard seasons and the franchise's career receptions lead.
CeeDee Lamb hit 1,077 yards on 75 catches in 2025, a workmanlike season for a receiver who once led the NFL in receptions. He passed Michael Irvin for the most receiving yards through six seasons in Cowboys history during the season finale. The Pickens trade pulled targets away, but Lamb remains the focal point of Dallas' passing game.
Path to the league
Consensus All-American at Oklahoma in 2019, where he caught 173 passes for 3,292 yards and 32 TDs across three seasons. Cowboys took him 17th overall in 2020, an unusual slide for a player most evaluators graded as a top-10 talent. Made the Pro Bowl as a rookie.
Career highlights
2023 NFL receptions leader (135). 2023 first-team All-Pro. Four-time Pro Bowler. Cowboys' single-season records for catches (135) and receiving yards (1,749), both set in 2023. Signed a four-year, $136 million extension in August 2024.
2025 season recap
75 catches on 114 targets, 1,077 yards, three touchdowns. The Pickens trade in October gave Dallas a true second perimeter threat, which improved the offense but redistributed targets. Lamb's catch percentage stayed elite (65.8) but his yards-per-route-run dropped from his 2023 highs.
What to watch in 2026
Dallas franchise-tagged Pickens for 2026, which keeps the two-receiver dynamic intact. Lamb enters his seventh season under contract through 2028. The Cowboys' biggest offseason need is defense, which should help Lamb because the offense won't need to throw 600 times again to keep games close.
