Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb caught seven of his 12 targets for 85 yards in Monday night's 27-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Lamb hasn't missed a beat since returning from his ankle injury in Week 7 against Washington, catching 19 of 30 targets for 260 yards and a touchdown in the past three games. It was a slow start in the first half for the 26-year-old superstar, but he was able to turn in a solid fantasy day in a game where Dallas' offense wasn't at its best. Lamb has been a target hog this season, drawing at least 10 targets in four games despite only playing six games. Only seven other wide receivers this season have as many or more games. Lamb and the Cowboys will get a chance to regroup after their Week 10 bye.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb turned in another solid performance in Week 8 against a tough Denver defense, hauling in seven of 10 targets for 74 yards. Even in a difficult matchup, Lamb continued to operate as Dak Prescott's clear top option, maintaining his strong target share. The Cowboys now face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9, a defense that ranks 10th in passing yards allowed per game (234.9). This matchup presents an opportunity for the Dallas passing attack to find more success through the air. Lamb has proven to be one of the most reliable fantasy wideouts when healthy.Fantasy managers should continue to view Lamb as a high-end WR1 heading into Week 9. RotoBaller currently ranks him as the No. 4 wide receiver for the week.

After missing three games due to a high-ankle sprain, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb returned to the field in Week 7 and showed little sign of rust. Lamb recorded five catches for 110 yards and a touchdown on eight targets in his team's 44-22 win over the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 21 catches for 332 yards and a score on 32 targets across four games played, one of which he was forced to leave very early on after injuring his ankle. The Cowboys' offense is averaging over 250 passing yards and 30 points per game so far this season, which should put Lamb in a position for monster production on a week-to-week basis. Now that he's back on the field and appears fully healthy, Lamb is a must-start fantasy wide receiver heading into his team's Week 8 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will make his return in Week 7 against Washington after missing three games with a high-ankle sprain. Lamb practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday. He's not expected to have any workload restrictions in his first game back and should reclaim his spot as the top target earner for QB Dak Prescott, who is playing as well as anyone in the league right now. It's a favorable matchup for Lamb against a gettable Washington secondary. Lamb will rank as one of the top WR options in fantasy for Week 7.
Oct 18, 2025 1:14 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday and was removed from the Week 7 injury report, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Lamb will officially return to play on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Commanders for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears. Fellow wideout KaVontae Turpin (foot) will also return for Dallas after missing the last two games. The 26-year-old said on Thursday that he was expecting to return this weekend and that he won't be on any workload restrictions in his first game back. Well, there you have it. Lamb will be back as Dallas' WR1 and will be returning to a plus matchup against Washington's secondary. Get him back into your starting lineups. Lamb's return will relegate George Pickens to WR2 duties.
Oct 17, 2025 5:11 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) told reporters on Thursday that he will play and will "not be on a pitch count" in Week 7 against the Washington Commanders, per Clarence Hill Jr. of DLLS Sports. Lamb has been sidelined since Week 3, when he suffered a high ankle sprain early in the Cowboys' loss to the Chicago Bears. The 26-year-old recorded 16 catches for 222 yards on 24 targets across the first two weeks of 2025. Lamb should immediately re-assume the WR1 role in Dallas upon his return. He profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 7 against Washington.
Oct 16, 2025 5:02 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) was officially limited in his return to the practice field on Wednesday, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Fellow wideout KaVontae Turpin (foot) also returned to a limited practice after missing the last two games. Lamb is practicing for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears. While the 26-year-old is making progress, he's not a lock to return this Sunday to face the division-rival Washington Commanders. With that said, the Cowboys are saying there is a "good chance" that the star pass-catcher will be back this weekend. Fantasy managers would love to see Lamb put in a full practice on Thursday or Friday. As long as Lamb's workload isn't limited if he returns in Week 7, he should be considered a must-start in fantasy lineups against a leaky Commanders secondary.
Oct 15, 2025 8:04 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday, opening the possibility to suit up for Sunday's divisional clash with the Washington Commanders. Lamb has missed the past three games, opening the door for George Pickens to take on a larger role in the passing game. His potential return comes at the perfect time, as the Commanders rank just 23rd against the pass and have struggled to contain top receivers all season. If active, Lamb immediately resumes his role as a must-start WR1 and should provide a significant boost to Dak Prescott's fantasy outlook as well.
Oct 15, 2025 2:07 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has been sidelined since Week 3, when he left the game with a high ankle sprain before getting any catches against the Bears. However, owner Jerry Jones said that Lamb's potential availability for Week 7's matchup with the Commanders is "looking good." The fact that Lamb was never placed on IR gives him a chance to get back in the lineup this week, although Jones has been known to be ahead of schedule sometimes with his updates. Keep a close eye on practice reports this week to see how Lamb is involved, but if he does return, he'll be in a great matchup as he returns to his role in Dallas's high-volume passing game. His return would slightly downgrade George Pickens and Jake Ferguson, while probably taking any sleeper value away from Ryan Flournoy and Jalen Tolbert, who have helped fill in during his absence.
Oct 14, 2025 10:05 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Monday that wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has a chance to return for the Week 7 matchup against the division-rival Washington Commanders on Sunday, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Lamb is making progress from a left high-ankle sprain that he suffered back in Week 3, and fantasy managers might get him back this weekend. In addition to Lamb, Dallas could also get receiver KaVontae Turpin (foot) back after he has missed the last two games. Whether Lamb makes his return in Week 7 in a plus matchup against Washington will be determined by whether he can get on the practice field and how much he can do. Right now, it's looking like the star wideout is 50-50 to play. With Lamb out for the last three games, George Pickens' fantasy ceiling has risen to must-start WR1 status in fantasy.
Oct 13, 2025 3:23 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has already been ruled out ahead of the Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. This marks the third straight absence for Lamb, but he might not be out too much longer. According to Ian Rapoport, Lamb could return for next week's matchup against the Washington Commanders. This is great news for fantasy managers who only got two solid games out of Lamb before he went down. For now, George Pickens and Jake Ferguson figure to be the primary receiving options with Ryan Flournoy being mixed in as well.
Oct 12, 2025 8:50 AM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has officially been ruled out for the Week 6 game this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers after missing practice all week, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. This will be the third straight game that Lamb misses after he suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears. In addition to Lamb, KaVontae Turpin (foot) will miss a second straight game, leaving Dallas' receiving corps thin for another week. Lamb will need to get back on the practice field next week if he wants to have any chance of returning for a Week 7 divisional game versus the Washington Commanders. In the meantime, he needs to be firmly stashed in all fantasy leagues. George Pickens and tight end Jake Ferguson could both be in line for big days again this weekend with both Lamb and Turpin sidelined. Ryan Flournoy and Jalen Tolbert will battle for WR2 targets behind Pickens.
Oct 10, 2025 5:07 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) missed another day of practice this week on Thursday. Lamb has made progress from a high-ankle sprain that has kept him sidelined for each of the last two games, but he's not on track to make his return in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. Per Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News, the 26-year-old Pro Bowler continues to focus on conditioning and resistance training before he can think about getting back on the field. Lamb has not officially been ruled out for the weekend in Carolina, but that is likely coming on Friday. Fantasy managers can only hope that Lamb will make more progress next week and return to face the division-rival Washington Commanders in Week 7. George Pickens will continue to operate as the WR1 in Dallas if Lamb misses another game, with tight end Jake Ferguson also seeing a heavy target share. Jalen Tolbert and Ryan Flournoy will battle for the WR2 role if KaVontae Turpin (foot) misses a second straight game.
Oct 9, 2025 6:13 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) missed the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Lamb is slowly recovering from a high left-ankle sprain that he suffered in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears, but he's tracking towards missing a third straight game in Week 6 versus the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Fantasy managers should not expect the 26-year-old to return to practice this week or play this weekend. It's unclear if he'll have a better chance to make his return in Week 7 on Oct. 19 against the division-rival Washington Commanders. George Pickens and tight end Jake Ferguson have been target hogs in a high-volume passing attack since Lamb's injury, and Ryan Flournoy blew up in the Week 5 win over the New York Jets, with KaVontae Turpin (foot) also out. It might be another couple of weeks before we see Lamb.
Oct 8, 2025 5:21 PM EST
During his weekly radio appearance with 105.3 The Fan, Dallas Cowboys COO and Co-Owner Stephen Jones listed wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) among a group of players who could return within the next two weeks. The All-Pro receiver suffered a high ankle sprain in the team's Week 3 loss to the Bears, and he has since missed high-scoring games against the Packers and Jets. The fact that he was not put on IR was a promising sign that he should be able to return before the Cowboys' Week 10 bye, and the narrative out of Dallas would indicate that the team might be eyeing a Week 7 divisional clash with the Commanders to put him back on the field. Whenever he makes his return, he should be plugged right back into fantasy lineups without hesitation.
Oct 6, 2025 3:08 PM EST
According to Todd Archer of ESPN, the Dallas Cowboys are ruling out wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) for a second straight game in Week 5 against the New York Jets. It doesn't come as a surprise, as Lamb was expected all along to miss multiple weeks after suffering a left high-ankle sprain in Week 3. The good news is that Lamb was able to do some rehab work off to the side this week. Still, he could miss a third game in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers, and his availability moving forward will depend on how soon he can return to practice with the rest of the team. With Lamb out last week, George Pickens went off for 100-plus yards and two touchdowns in the Week 4 tie with the Green Bay Packers, while Jalen Tolbert worked as the clear WR2. Tight end Jake Ferguson should remain firmly in the TE1 picture with added targets with Lamb injured. With KaVontae Turpin (foot) up in the air this weekend, Ryan Flournoy could operate as Dallas' WR3.
Oct 3, 2025 1:05 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) remains out of practice on Thursday, according to Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News. Lamb appears headed for a second straight absence in Week 5 against the New York Jets after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 3. The 26-year-old pass-catcher still has another day to try to get in more work, but in all likelihood, the Cowboys will rule him out on Friday. Fantasy managers need to remain patient and keep him on their benches until further notice. Lamb's next chance to play will be for a Week 6 matchup on the road against the Carolina Panthers. KaVontae Turpin (foot) has now missed back-to-back practices this week as well, so Dallas could be down to George Pickens, Jalen Tolbert and Ryan Flournoy this weekend if both Lamb and Turpin are unable to play.
Oct 2, 2025 6:12 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) was not seen wearing a boot during Wednesday's practice. This is an excellent sign for his status, as he was unable to play in Week 4 in their contest against the Green Bay Packers due to a high ankle sprain. While Lamb will face an uphill battle to be ready in time to face the New York Jets this weekend, he appears to be trending in the right direction. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on his stats during practice this week, as it will likely provide clarity on his potential availability. This past weekend, George Pickens operated as the team's primary wideout, catching eight of his 11 targets for 134 yards and two scores. While Lamb remains sidelined, Jalen Tolbert figures to serve as the WR2 and carry FLEX appeal in deeper formats.
Oct 1, 2025 3:37 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said that wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and offensive lineman Tyler Booker, who are both recovering from high-ankle sprains, are "trending in the right direction," according to Tommy Yarrish of DallasCowboys.com. Schottenheimer added that as things stand, the team doesn't plan on putting either Lamb or Booker on Injured Reserve, but they reserve the right to change their minds. If Lamb or Booker were put on IR, they'd be forced to miss at least four games. Even if Lamb is not put on IR, the 26-year-old All-Pro wideout could miss multiple weeks after missing his first game in Sunday night's overtime tie to the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers must remain patient with Lamb and hope he can avoid IR and return sooner rather than later. In the meantime, George Pickens, who went over 100 yards with two TDs on Sunday night, will be Dallas' clear WR1. Jalen Tolbert saw an expanded role in Week 4, too, and is worth a short-term waiver pickup for those looking for wideout reinforcements with bye weeks starting in Week 5.
Sep 29, 2025 6:45 PM EST
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. As expected, Lamb won't suit up this weekend after suffering a high-ankle sprain during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. Lamb is expected to miss multiple weeks due to this injury, but the team waited until Friday to officially rule him out. His absence should mean increased roles for George Pickens, Jalen Tolbert, and KaVontae Turpin. Also, tight end Jake Ferguson should also see a boost in value with Lamb sidelined.
