CeeDee Lamb injury update: Latest news on Cowboys WR’s status in Week 3 game

We aren’t out of the first half yet and the Dallas Cowboys have an injury concern with wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.

Lamb got injured on the Cowboys’ second offensive series of the game against the Chicago Bears. Lamb got his legs trapped under a Bears defender while getting tackled.

Lamb was able to return to the game but then exited for a second time, which is bad news for his status for the rest of the game.

Prior to his injury, Lamb had a single carry for -1 yards but had not been targeted in the passing game.

Here’s the latest injury update on Lamb.

UPDATE: Welp, so much for Lamb’s return.

He tried to gut it out for a few plays but is clearly not able to do much on his bum ankle. He is back out of the game.

And now back out of the game…. https://t.co/QD3tbCjgvK

As long as Lamb is sidelined, the Cowboys are going to need more out of George Pickens and Jake Ferguson.
