CeeDee Lamb injury update: Cowboys WR updates status after practice absence

Dallas Cowboys star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb told reporters on Thursday evening that his ankle is “good”, according to Jon Machota. He said it was just feeling sore on Wednesday, so he had to take a day off.

The Cowboys listed Lamb on their Wednesday injury report. He was listed as–DNP–(ankle) on the report. He recently signed a contract extension with Dallas, after months of waiting it out. Dallas won their Week 1 matchup against the Browns, while being thoroughly whipped by the Saints on Sunday. They’ll face off against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Kick is slated for 4:25 PM EST and the game is nationally televised on FOX.

Fans had been begging Lamb and Jerry Jones to come to an agreement in the past few weeks. So, with Lamb officially signed, he decided to send a message out to Cowboys Nation on social media. Lamb promised to keep the touchdowns coming as long as the support continued, no matter the city Dallas is playing in.

“What’s up, Cowboy Nation?” Lamb said. “It’s your boy, he’s back in the building. I’m happy, happy to be back. Can’t wait to see y’all at home, away, wherever. I know we travel well. Go nuts every game. Plenty of touchdowns and a lot more of that coming. Love y’all.”

Dallas has locked up their star wide receiver for at least the next four seasons, paying him a pretty penny over the contract. Lamb will be making $136 million with a signing bonus of $38 million — the largest handed out to anybody at the position.

A former first-round pick of the Cowboys, Lamb spent his college days with the Oklahoma Sooners. Since arriving ahead of the 2020 season, Lamb has been one of the top players in the NFL. Last season saw him lead the league in receptions with 135 while adding 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns.

Offensive Player of the Year voting saw Lamb finish third, only behind Christian McCaffery and Tyreek Hill. Even with no training camp under his belt, Dallas fully expects Lamb to maintain his high level of play, showing confidence with the contract extension.
