Cowboys Confirm CeeDee Lamb High-Ankle Sprain, Sources Say He’s Unlikely to Face Packers

Dallas plans a 10–14 day evaluation as its two-to-four-week outlook contrasts with the common four-to-six-week recovery for this injury.

Overview

  • Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that Lamb has a high-ankle sprain and acknowledged it will be hard for him to play against Green Bay.
  • Lamb injured his left ankle on a backfield run when Bears linebacker Noah Sewell landed on his leg, briefly tried to return, and was ruled out at halftime after just six snaps.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Lamb is unlikely for Sunday night and that the team will reassess his status over the next 10–14 days.
  • NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport noted Lamb’s injury fits the high-ankle sprain profile that often requires four to six weeks, though Dallas officials have floated a two-to-four-week window.
  • With Lamb sidelined, George Pickens is expected to lead the receiving corps and tight end Jake Ferguson saw heavy targets, as Michael Irvin criticized the play call that exposed Lamb to contact in the backfield.
