Lamb skipped the Cowboys' mandatory minicamp in June, leading to fines totaling roughly $100,000, although those can be rescinded by the team. Lamb is being fined $50,000 for every day he has missed during training camp, which cannot be rescinded.
You have to be a certain kind of stupid to be content getting fined $50,000 a day for not showing up to the job where you're trying to demand a 100%+ raise.
Pretty sure teams can "excuse" not showing to mini-camp. They cannot excuse not showing to Training Camp. For instance IDT T. Brown was fined because his absense was excused.
