Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb posted his lowest yardage total of the season last week against the Los Angeles Chargers, catching six of seven targets for 51 yards. It snapped a three-game streak of 100+ receiving yards and was also the star wideout's first game averaging less than 10 yards per reception since Week 12 of last season against the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old is primed for a big performance against a vulnerable Washington secondary on Christmas Day. He terrorized them for 110 yards and a touchdown on five catches (eight targets) in his first game returning from an early-season three-game absence due to an ankle injury. Lamb remains an elite WR1 option in fantasy for Week 17.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (illness) missed the team's first two practices of the week, but he was able to log a full participation on Friday and is a locked-in WR1 for Sunday's fantasy semifinal matchup with the Chargers. Los Angeles has boasted one of the strongest pass defenses in the league, but the Cowboys' explosive offense, coupled with their own porous defense, has superseded matchups all year long. We see evidence of this once again with Sunday's 50.5 point over/under, the second-highest total of the week. Lamb has averaged 104.8 receiving yards over his last four games, despite facing three of the league's best pass defenses in the Eagles, Chiefs, and Vikings. He is RotoBaller's WR4 for the week and is a must-start along with the rest of the Cowboys' offensive pieces.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (illness) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday due to an illness, per ESPN's Todd Archer. Archer notes that Lamb was present for team meetings, but was not present on the practice field. At this point, Lamb will likely need to get back to practice on Friday to avoid entering the weekend with a questionable designation. Across 11 games this season, the 26-year-old has recorded 63 catches for 976 yards and three touchdowns on 99 targets. If Lamb were to miss his team's Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, Cowboys wideout George Pickens would take over as the team's WR1, while wide receivers Ryan Flournoy and KaVontae Turpin would likely see an increase in playing time. Fantasy managers should check back for Lamb's practice status on Friday.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (illness) was under the weather on Wednesday and did not practice, according to Clarence Hill Jr. of All City Dallas. Lamb isn't feeling well to begin the practice week, but he should be just fine for Sunday's Week 16 game against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, where he'll remain a must-start fantasy football receiver. The 26-year-old four-time Pro Bowler hasn't been quite as good as teammate George Pickens in 2025, but he's been a top-10 fantasy wideout in terms of half-PPR points per game (14.7). In his 10 games played, Lamb has 63 receptions on 99 targets for 976 yards and three touchdowns. He's had over 100 receiving yards in each of the last three games and should reach the 1,000-yard mark for the fifth straight season.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) passed the league's concussion protocol and is off the injury report heading into their Sunday night tilt against the Minnesota Vikings. Lamb sustained this concussion during their Week 14 loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday night. However, before exiting, the superstar wideout still made an impact, catching six of his eight targets for 121 yards on just 47% of the team's snaps. This was his second-straight game eclipsing the century mark. Since his three-game absence due to an ankle injury in Weeks 4 through 6, Lamb has returned to his high-end status at the position. During this seven-game stretch, Lamb has averaged a strong 17.6 PPR points per game and has continued to see a massive target share, earning 9.3 targets per game, despite playing alongside George Pickens. Given Dallas' high-octane passing game, QB Dak Prescott has been able to support both Pickens and Lamb as they have continued to produce WR1 stat lines on a weekly basis. Even though Lamb will face a formidable Minnesota secondary that has allowed the fewest PPR points to opposing WRs this season and just contained Terry McLaurin to 41 yards last Sunday, Lamb remains a must-start WR1 in all formats in the opening week of the fantasy playoffs.
Dec 12, 2025 7:45 PM EST
NFL Insider Tom Pelissero reported Friday morning that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) has cleared concussion protocol and will play Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings. This is a massive sigh of relief for Lamb fantasy managers and Cowboys fans. Lamb was injured in Week 14 on Thursday Night Football, leaping for a ball in the endzone and hitting his head on the turf, and was immediately ruled out and did not return to the game. Now that Lamb has cleared the concussion protocol, he is a "set and forget" type of player and should be in all fantasy lineups. The Vikings' pass defense might present a challenge, as they allow the fewest points to opposing wide receivers in fantasy; however, Lamb is a superstar who bypasses any tough matchups as long as their quarterback, Dak Prescott, continues to play at the MVP level that he is playing at. On the season, Lamb has 865 yards on 89 targets (57 receptions) and three touchdowns in 10 games played.
Dec 12, 2025 9:27 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) practiced in full on Thursday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Schefter reports that the star wideout is "on track" to play in Dallas' Week 15 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football. Lamb was forced to exit the Cowboys' Week 14 loss to the Detroit Lions early after suffering a concussion. However, that game was last Thursday night, giving Lamb a few extra days to recover before Sunday. Across 10 games this season, the 26-year-old has hauled in 57 receptions for 865 yards and three touchdowns on 89 targets. He's earned at least eight targets in every game but one this season and recorded at least 74 receiving yards in every game but two. Barring a setback, Lamb profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 15 against Minnesota.
Dec 11, 2025 5:00 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) was on the practice field on Thursday for a second straight day as he works his way back from a concussion that he suffered in last Thursday night's loss to the Detroit Lions, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. Barring a setback, it looks like Lamb will be able to play on Sunday night versus the Minnesota Vikings. The 26-year-old was limited in Wednesday's practice and still needs to gain clearance from an independent neurologist, but that should come later this week. Lamb has been outproduced by George Pickens this year, but he had a season-high 121 receiving yards on six receptions last week before suffering a concussion in the second half, showing that he still has plenty of big-play upside when he actually catches the ball. If Lamb is cleared for Week 15, he needs to be in all fantasy football lineups.
Dec 11, 2025 2:44 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion), who suffered a concussion in the loss to the Detroit Lions last Thursday night, was officially limited in practice on Wednesday, according to Pro Football Talk. Lamb is in the league's concussion protocol, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer said the 26-year-old only has one or two boxes to check before being cleared to play in a Sunday night matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Things are trending in the right direction. It wouldn't hurt for fantasy managers to pick up Ryan Flournoy just in case, though, after the Dallas wideout caught nine of 13 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown last Thursday night with Lamb injured. If active, Lamb should be in all starting fantasy lineups in the first week of the playoffs in most leagues. He's tied with Amon-Ra St. Brown with 14.8 half-PPR points per game.
Dec 10, 2025 6:06 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said on Wednesday that wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) is "progressing nicely" and has "one or two" more things left to clear the league's concussion protocol, according to Tommy Yarrish of DallasCowboys.com. Lamb will probably be listed as limited on the team's injury report on Wednesday, but he was seen going through drills despite suffering a concussion in last Thursday night's loss to the Detroit Lions. Until the 26-year-old is officially cleared from concussion protocol, he'll be considered questionable to play on Sunday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings. However, as of now, it's looking like he's on the right side of questionable. Ryan Flournoy went off for nine catches, 115 yards, and a touchdown on 13 targets in Week 14 with Lamb injured, making him a popular speculative waiver-wire pickup if Lamb doesn't gain clearance to play this weekend. If Lamb is active, he'll be a must-start in all fantasy lineups in Week 15.
Dec 10, 2025 3:14 PM EST
Updating a previous report, Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Monday that wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) is "doing a good job" after suffering a concussion in last Thursday night's loss to the Detroit Lions, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "He's meeting all the thresholds that you need to meet that will get him to where he can play this week. So far, he's had no setbacks," Jones added. The 26-year-old had six catches on eight targets for a season-high 121 yards before getting hurt, but it remains to be seen whether he'll actually be cleared from the NFL's concussion protocol in time to play on Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15. Lamb is headed in the right direction, but fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on his progress this week. Ryan Flournoy, who had nine catches, 115 yards and a TD last week, would be in play as an upside flex against Minnesota if Lamb is not cleared.
Dec 8, 2025 1:31 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer notes that wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) is "doing good. Progressing nicely," following his injury in Thursday's 44-30 loss to the hosting Detroit Lions. The former Oklahoma Sooner put up a strong performance in Week 14, notching six catches and 121 yards (eight targets), despite participating in fewer than half of the team's snaps. It's excellent news that the sentiment surrounding him seems to be positive. Still, fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on his status over the coming days, as he'll need to check a few boxes before clearing the league's protocol. If Lamb is forced to miss Sunday night's home bout with the Minnesota Vikings, teammates Ryan Flournoy, KaVontae Turpin, and Jonathan Mingo would comprise the list of pass-catchers operating behind George Pickens in his stead.
Dec 8, 2025 11:53 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) "had a good day" on Friday after suffering a concussion in the Thursday night loss to the Detroit Lions, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The head coach said the extra days going into the Week 15 game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Dec. 14, should help get him back. The 26-year-old hit his head hard on the turf while trying to make a catch in the third quarter and was quickly ruled out. The good news for fantasy managers is that he caught six of eight targets for a season-high 121 yards before getting hurt. There's no guarantee that Lamb will clear the league's concussion protocol in time to play next Sunday, but it definitely helps that he'll have extra time before that contest. With Lamb's status up in the air for next week, Ryan Flournoy, who had nine catches (13 targets) for 115 yards and a TD on Thursday, will be a top waiver-wire target in fantasy leagues.
Dec 5, 2025 8:18 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) has entered concussion protocol, ESPN's Todd Archer reports. Lamb was on a tear before exiting Thursday's 44-30 loss to the hosting Detroit Lions, posting his second consecutive 100-yard outing despite playing less than half of the team's snaps (46%). Unfortunately, he'll now be faced with clearing the league's protocol as he attempts to avoid missing his fourth contest of the campaign. A silver lining for the 26-year-old is that Dallas' next matchup is still over a week away, giving the superstar wideout a few extra days to get right before they host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night. If he's unable to play, fantasy managers can expect teammates Ryan Flournoy and KaVontae Turpin to work behind George Pickens in three-wide-receiver sets.
Dec 5, 2025 11:49 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's Week 14 contest against the Detroit Lions. He had been dominant prior to his departure, catching six of eight targets for 121 yards. Concussions typically sideline players for more than a week, but given that the Cowboys have 10 days until their next game, there's a slight chance that Lamb could clear concussion protocol before Week 15 against the Los Angeles Chargers. George Pickens will step up as the Cowboys' top receiver in his absence, ranking as a mid-to-high WR1 in fantasy football. Ryan Flournoy and Jake Ferguson should also earn more targets in Dallas' passing offense.
Dec 4, 2025 10:37 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is coming off his best game of the year on Thanksgiving Day against the Kansas City Chiefs, posting seven receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. Lamb has had some frustrating drops this season, but he is still one of the best weekly fantasy football options at wide receiver. His 112 yards in Week 13 matched a season high and was his first 100-yard outing since Week 7 against the Washington Commanders. The star wideout has been overshadowed at times by George Pickens, who has had a fantastic first season in Dallas, but there is plenty of passing volume with quarterback Dak Prescott at the helm for both receivers to be high-end fantasy options every week. Lamb is ranked as RotoBaller's WR2 in PPR leagues for Thursday night against the Detroit Lions, who have allowed the second-most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers.
Dec 4, 2025 12:55 AM EST
Across seven games in 2025, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has recorded 40 catches for 557 yards and two touchdowns on 61 targets. Even with fellow Dallas wideout George Pickens in the midst of a breakout season, Lamb has earned double-digit targets in four out of the six games where he has played all four quarters. In Week 12, Lamb gets a difficult matchup when the Cowboys host the Philadelphia Eagles. For the season, the Eagles are tied with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs for the fewest passing touchdowns allowed (nine). Philadelphia has also played some of its best defense of late, holding the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions to a combined 16 points over the last two weeks. Still, in his first matchup of the season against the Eagles in Week 1, Lamb recorded seven catches for 110 yards on 13 targets and could have had an even bigger game if not for a couple of uncharacteristic drops. He remains a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 12 against his division rival.
Nov 22, 2025 2:50 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb recorded five catches on seven targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 33-16 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Lamb and George Pickens both sat out the first offensive series of the game due to a coach's decision, but both returned to their normal roles afterward and had strong nights. The star wideout took a backseat to Pickens in this game, with the former Steeler leading the team with 11 targets and exploding for 144 yards and a touchdown. Lamb still had a strong game for fantasy managers on a night where the Cowboys moved the ball at will, but it could have been an even bigger night for the 26-year-old if he had hauled in what would have been a walk-in touchdown near the end of the game. He will continue to rank as a strong WR1 moving forward, but a tougher matchup awaits in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Nov 18, 2025 12:42 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens were on the sideline for the first drive of Monday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. The benching of these players wasn't because of an injury. This was a coach's decision, so it appears that Lamb and Pickens were being disciplined for some reason by head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Fantasy managers don't need to panic, as both players were back in the game after that. Hopefully, this won't be a problem going forward. Both Lamb (touchdown) and Pickens were quickly involved in Dallas' passing attack after sitting out the first offensive series in Week 11.
Nov 17, 2025 9:23 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has proven he is one of the elite fantasy wideouts when healthy. Lamb is coming off a strong performance in Week 9, hauling in 7 catches for 85 yards against the Cardinals. He remains one of Dak Prescott's favorite targets, earning 22 targets over his last two games. Look for Lamb and the Cowboys to get back on track this week against a poor Las Vegas Raiders defense. The Raiders have been allowing around 214 passing yards per game, giving Dallas plenty of opportunities to attack through the air. Lamb should be heavily involved again in what projects to be a high-scoring matchup with a 49.5-point total. RotoBaller currently has Lamb ranked as the WR4 for Week 11.
