CeeDee Lamb injury update: Cowboys WR makes major breakthrough

by: Nick Geddes 3 hours ago NickGeddesNews

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. According to Joseph Hoyt of the Dallas Morning News, Lamb has cleared concussion protocol, putting him on track to play Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings.

Lamb suffered a concussion in last Thursday’s 44-30 Week 14 road defeat to the Detroit Lions. Down 18 in the second half, quarterback  Dak Prescott  threw up a jump ball for Lamb in one-on-one coverage, eventually falling incomplete. Lamb himself took a pretty big fall and did not have the chance to brace himself. He stayed down on the Ford Field turf for quite some time after hitting his head off the playing surface.

Lamb hauled in a team leading six passes for 121 yards before leaving the game. The 26-year-old has appeared in 10 games this season, tallying 57 receptions for 865 yards and three touchdowns. Head coach  Brian Schottenheimer  had said Wednesday that Lamb was “progressing nicely.”

“He’s doing good,” Schottenheimer said. “Talked to him over the weekend. He’s progressing nicely, and hopefully things work out like we expect.”

The Cowboys are chasing the Philadelphia Eagles for the top spot in the NFC East. While Dallas slipped up this past Thursday, they remain alive with four games to go in the 2025 regular season. Philadelphia had a chance to take advantage of Dallas’ loss on Thursday Night Football, but they failed to do it. The Eagles dropped their third consecutive game Monday night, a 22-19 overtime defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers.
