Despite failing to reach the NFL<\/a> Playoffs, the Dallas Cowboys still had one of the most potent offenses in the entire league during the 2025 regular season<\/a>. <\/p>\n

One of the key drivers of Dallas\u2019 high-powered offense was the combination and duo of George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb at the wide receiver position<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, it wouldn\u2019t be a shock for Cowboys fans to hope that Jerry Jones and the team\u2019s front office will do everything they can to reach a deal that will see Pickens return to Dallas next year.<\/p>\n

And it looks like Lamb, for his part, could also be willing to do whatever it takes.<\/p>\n

CeeDee could be happy to take one for the team<\/p>\n

The former Oklahoma Sooners star was being interviewed on the \u201cDan Patrick Show\u201d when he was asked if Pickens will be suiting up for the Cowboys in the 2026 campaign.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has no choice, I say that. This is my opinion,\u201d Lamb said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Patrick then followed up and asked Lamb if he would go as far as restructuring his own contract to ensure Pickens remains with the Dallas franchise.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean if it\u2019s necessary, honestly. I\u2019m pretty good but I know he\u2019s gonna get every penny that he deserves here in Dallas,\u201d Lamb replied.<\/p>\n

During the interview, Lamb also spoke about the Cowboys not being that far away from making a Super Bowl<\/a> run of their own.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like we\u2019re very close. We just gotta put the pieces together right,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Overall, the odds of Dallas playing in a Super Bowl<\/a> are probably greater if Pickens were to remain with the side. <\/p>\n
