    Cowboys’ CeeDee Lamb shades fans by claiming Eagles have the most passionate fanbase

    Dallas Cowboys fans should probably turn away. 

    Days after the Cowboys’ divisional rival bested the Kansas City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, star receiver CeeDee Lamb decided to add salt to the wound, saying that the Philadelphia Eagles have a “more passionate” fanbase than Dallas.

    “Eagles – they’re crazy,” Lamb told digital content creator Katie Feeney in an interview this week.

    “Our fans are deep, but they’re not – I don’t wanna say nothing crazy – but the Eagles got it.”

    Eagles fans, notorious for their passion and ability to climb a greased pole, had their chance to shine on Friday as the team celebrated their 40-22 victory over the defending champions with a parade in downtown Philadelphia. 

    Even Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro took a dig during his speech at the Super Bowl parade rally.

    COWBOYS STAR CEEDEE LAMB SOUNDS OFF AMID TEAMMATE MICAH PARSONS TRADE RUMORS

    “People love to hate on the Eagles. People love to hate on Philly. I think we became America’s Team in all of this. I hope Dallas hears this,” Shapiro yelled during his speech. 

    But despite Lamb’s flattery, the veteran wideout seems content with remaining in Dallas.

    He signed a four-year, $136 million contract extension in August that will keep him in Dallas until 2028. Despite missing the playoffs, Lamb had another standout season.

    He finished top 10 among receivers this past season with 101 receptions for 1,194 yards and six touchdowns despite being sidelined for the remainder of the season in December.

    Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb sounds off amid teammate Micah Parsons trade rumors

    Micah Parsons put together another strong performance this past season. The Dallas Cowboys linebacker recorded 12 sacks despite missing four games in his fourth NFL season.

    Parsons is set to play the 2025 season on his fifth-year option before he is scheduled to become a free agent. The star pass rusher would then be free to sign with another team, unless his representatives and the Cowboys’ front office are able to reach an agreement on a contract extension.

    While Parsons’ future remains uncertain, trade rumors have already started to swirl – much to the displeasure of one of his current teammates.

    A report from NFL Media recently surfaced saying “some internal discussions” have taken place among the Cowboys brass about the possibility of including Parsons in a trade. Dallas star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb apparently caught wind of the report, and questioned whether there was any fatigue concerning discussions about Parsons.

    He also suggested that having Parsons on the team gives Dallas the best opportunity to win games going forward.

    “Y’all aren’t tired of this? Every offseason, top of the charts… Let’s just win ball games and that’s with 11! SMH,” Lamb wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

    Parsons is scheduled to make $21.324 million this upcoming season. While he is listed on the Cowboys’ roster as a linebacker, he lined up at the defensive end position for the majority of the team’s defensive snaps last season and was tagged as such.

    San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa’s roughly $34 million represents the league’s highest annual salary for a defensive end.

    Lamb and Parsons will be under the guidance of a new head coach when they report to training camp in the coming months. The Cowboys parted ways with head coach Mike McCarthy last month and promoted Brian Schottenheimer from his offensive coordinator post to head coach.
