I would love to hear CeeDee's side of the story. I mean what does it take to sit down and sign a bunch of trading cards? And if it is about money, come on, man! You will have years to make more money. If you signed a contract, honor it.

On the other hand, if he is concerned about profiteer off his name he is not alone. Some famous athletes will not sign anything for adults, who are usually the ones profiteering. They only sign for kids - who are probably paid by adults to go get the autographs! But still, a contract is a contract.


What was the Tuna old saying, there are 2 sides to every pancake. Love that man sayings!

If he signed a contract to sign a certain number then he is obligated and received compensation
His side of the story will come from his lawyer when he answers the complaint

What they don't tell you is there were 750 thousand redemptions.

He could have signed them all but then he would have been out for the season.

Eventually all WR’s turn into Prima Donnas. CeeDee needs to sign the cards and then have a monster year. This is the year to prove he can be “that dude”

You aren't a bonafide elite Cowboys WR unless you are being sued for millions by some company because you did something dumb.

Can't be doing this CeeDee. Fans will frown upon this & it will come back to haunt you!


Leaf CEO Brian Gray shared a statement on Twitter.
“Leaf has filed the first ever lawsuit against an athlete in order to compel the completion of an autograph contract so customers holding redemptions are not forced to take replacements,” Gray wrote. “We hate doing this, but customers need defending here.”

Lamb apparently signed some items but not enough to fulfill the contract after the Cowboys made Lamb the 17th overall choice in 2020. The company is seeking damages and attorney fees. In the filing, Leaf asks the court to serve Lamb with the suit at his home or the Cowboys’ offices in Frisco, where Lamb is expected to take part in organized team activities this week.

I dunno, lad, this might give Ceedee more stret cred, he's been such a choir boy up till now.
Jerry likes being around bad boys however tha degree o' seriousness.

Dear CeeDee,

They didn't pay you for your charming personality nor was it a gift. You sign the cards in exchange for the money. Capisce?

Sincerely Yours,
President of the Don't be a D*ck Society

Most likely
Law suites in business are very common and aren’t a big deal anyway, in most cases
It is to the fans who ordered their trading cards. Especially the younger fans. Some of these super stars need to come back down to earth & remember what reality is like. It doens't matter who you are, karma will catch up to you sooner or later.

I don’t know who’s fault it is
Did the company over promise?
Did Lamb not meet his contractual obligation?
The company is charging the fans so they have a profit motive
It will all get worked out and we will see who did what
But I don’t automatically assume someone who makes claims can back those claims up
