Following a Dak Prescott interception that was thrown in the direction of CeeDee Lamb, the veteran wideout had words for his quarterback.
Cameras caught Lamb saying something in the direction of Prescott, and it certainly seemed derogatory based on the body language. The NBC crew calling the game showed a replay and opened up on the exchange.
“It’s hard to explain,” Cris Collinsworth said. “Just thrown into coverage and something’s wrong. Ceedee Lamb at the end of that, I’ll let you read your own lips. At Dak. Dak doesn’t react at all. Doesn’t look good.”
Added Mike Tirico in the booth:
“Not a bit. Not a bit.”
Dallas was having a tough night even before the drama between CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott, unable to put together much offensively against the elite Pittsburgh defense. TJ Watt was feasting up front and Prescott simply couldn’t get much going.
At the time of this writing, the Steelers led the game 10-6.
Sunday night’s contest was an important game for both teams.
Pittsburgh has gotten out to a 3-1 start and was protecting a half-game lead in the AFC North standings, with Baltimore close behind at 3-2. The Steelers have gotten there by playing excellent defense and limiting opponents’ scoring.

Dallas, meanwhile, was out to a 2-2 start to the season and trailed 4-1 Washington by a considerable margin already. Philadelphia is currently 2-2, as well, while the New York Giants are in last place in the NFC East standings at 2-3.
Though CeeDee Lamb was healthy, the Cowboys entered the contest hamstrung by injuries, particularly on defense.
Defensive ends Micah Parsons and KJ Henry were both inactive for the Sunday Night Football game, then defensive end Marshawn Kneeland was injured during the contest.
