CeeDee Lamb Injury News: Cowboys WR Suffers Foot Sprain
Lamb Expected to Miss Multiple Games
Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb suffered a foot sprain in the Dallas Cowboys' Week 5 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The injury is expected to sideline Lamb for multiple games, a significant blow to the Cowboys' offense.Lamb is one of the Cowboys' most dynamic playmakers. In four games this season, he has caught 20 passes for 313 yards and two touchdowns. His absence will leave a void in the Cowboys' passing attack.
The Cowboys are already without wide receiver Michael Gallup, who is recovering from a torn ACL. Lamb's injury further depletes the Cowboys' receiving corps, leaving quarterback Dak Prescott with fewer options.
Lamb's Injury Timeline
The Cowboys have not yet announced a specific timeline for Lamb's return. However, foot sprains typically take several weeks to heal. Lamb is likely to miss at least the Cowboys' next two games, against the Philadelphia Eagles and the Detroit Lions.The Cowboys hope to have Lamb back in time for their Week 8 matchup against the Chicago Bears. However, it is possible that Lamb could miss even more time, depending on the severity of the injury.
Cowboys' Offensive Outlook
Lamb's absence will force the Cowboys to adjust their offensive game plan. Prescott will likely rely more on tight end Dalton Schultz and running back Ezekiel Elliott in the passing game.The Cowboys could also promote wide receiver Simi Fehoko from the practice squad to provide depth. Fehoko has 10 catches for 140 yards and a touchdown in his career.
The Cowboys' offense is still capable of being productive without Lamb. However, his absence will make it more difficult for the Cowboys to score points.
