Reception at training camp, NFL merch sales reflect the fan favorite that is CeeDee Lamb

OXNARD, Calif. — Two Cowboys rank among the top 15 in the initial list of players who lead the NFL in licensed merchandise sales this year.

Quarterback Dak Prescott is No. 12. And coming at No. 15, five spots ahead of Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, is…

Receiver CeeDee Lamb.

“Really?’’ Lamb asked the other day after signing autographs for fans who ringed the practice field. “I didn’t even know that. That’s nice. That’s a great feeling.

“That means a lot of people love me, I guess.’’

Appears so.

Lamb talked about how he loves signing autographs for fans, especially kids. When he was young he got the autographs of former NFL players Andre Rison and Chris Johnson.

Does he still have those around?

“Nah,’’ he said.

Age does that to a person. But the kids who have gotten Lamb’s autograph during this camp intend to hang onto it for awhile.

“It’s a blessing to be here,’’ Lamb said of the attention that goes with playing for the Cowboys. “It’s a blessing to be on this team.

“It’s a blessing to be a part of this organization.’’
