Is CeeDee Lamb playing today? Injury news update for Cowboys wide receiver

The Dallas Cowboys return to action on Sunday night, hoping they have something to play for. After winning their third game in four attempts last week, Dallas has inched closer to .500 and want to improve to 7-8 with a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The hobbled, mangled crew currently still has a chance to make the playoffs, but that ends with any loss in their final three games or any win by Washington. The Commanders take on the NFC East leading Philadelphia in the early window of games. If the Eagles win, the Cowboys game still means something towards this pursuit.

To accomplish a victory in the NBC-aired contest, Dallas is in need of their No. 1 receiver, CeeDee Lamb.

Fortunately for Dallas, Lamb’s limited status from Wednesday’s practice over his lingering shoulder injury seems precautionary. Lamb was a full participant in Thursday and Friday’s work confirms things have not gotten worse, and the ailment does not seem to preclude him from suiting up. He should play as long as nothing wild happens during pre-game warmups.

The fifth-year wideout enters Week 16 third in the NFL in receptions with 94, already surpassing the millenium yardage mark with 1,089. Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase has already run away with Lamb’s receiving yardage crown from 2023, with the Cowboys’ passing game dearly missing Dak Prescott for the majority of the season. Perhaps Lamb will be catching passes from both Cooper Rush and Trey Lance in this contest.
