CowboysCeeDee Lamb Diagnosed With High-Ankle Sprain, Unlikely for Week 4 vs. Packers

The team set a 10–14 day check-in, opting against injured reserve to preserve a potential return inside four weeks.

Overview

  • Executive vice president Stephen Jones confirmed the high-ankle sprain and said it would be difficult for Lamb to play Sunday against Green Bay.
  • ESPN reports Lamb is unlikely to suit up in Week 4, with his status to be reassessed over the next 10–14 days.
  • Multiple outlets say the internal expectation is a short absence in the 2–4 week range, with several reports pointing to 3–4 weeks.
  • Ian Rapoport reports Dallas does not plan to place Lamb on injured reserve, expecting him to miss at least two games before he is considered week-to-week.
  • With Lamb sidelined, George Pickens becomes the top receiving option as Jake Ferguson, Jalen Tolbert and KaVontae Turpin take on larger roles.
