As for positive injury news for the Cowboys, Dallas is expected to have star receiver CeeDee Lamb available against the Commanders. He has been dealing with a back and foot injury this week. However, he is expected to be good to go when the Cowboys face the Washington Commanders on Sunday, according to ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler.

Fowler provided an update on Lamb and other Cowboys players Saturday morning on SportsCenter.

“Then you’ve got CeeDee Lamb. He had a bit of a back and foot issue this week, coming off of the Monday night game with Houston,” Fowler said. “Missed some practice time. But he was a full participant Friday. He is off the injury report.”

Lamb leads the Cowboys with 67 catches for 774 yards and four touchdowns on the season.

In addition to Lamb, the Cowboys appear set to get back a few other key pieces this weekend. Dallas is 3-7 on the year and has dropped five straight games. However, perhaps the Cowboys can get healthy, get a win streak going and potentially finish the season on a high note.

One of those pieces is cornerback DaRon Bland, who is set to make his season debut against Washington.
