3 months agoAccording to the team, the Dallas Cowboys have placed wide receiver
CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) on the injured reserve, officially ending his 2024 season. Earlier this week, the Cowboys announced that Lamb would miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old has delt with a lingering AC joint injury throughout the season. Lamb will finish the campaign with 101 receptions, 1,194 yards and six scores. He added 70 yards on 14 attempts. Over his past three games, Lamb was very productive averaging 21.4 PPR points per game. As a result, fantasy managers should expect
Brandin Cooks,
Jalen Tolbert, and
Jake Ferguson to lead the passing attack during the final two weeks of the season. Ferguson should be viewed as a low-end TE1 this weekend while Cooks and Tolbert enter flex territory in deeper formats.

3 months agoAccording to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver
CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season. A source noted that the star wideout is not expected to undergo surgery but will go through a process for treatment. The 25-year-old has been dealing with this lingering shoulder injury for several weeks and will now set his sights on the 2025 season. Through 15 games, Lamb caught 101 passes for 1,194 yards and six scores. He added 70 rushing yards on 14 carries. He averaged 17.6 PPR points per game and saw his production drop slightly once
Dak Prescott underwent season-ending hamstring surgery after Week 9. With the Cowboys out of the NFC playoff picture, they will opt to ensure their top playmaker is at full strength for the 2025 campaign. As a result, fantasy managers should expect
Jake Ferguson,
Brandin Cooks, and
Jalen Tolbert to operate as the top pass catchers over the final two weeks of the season.

3 months agoDallas Cowboys wide receiver
CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) is not practicing on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Lamb has been playing through an AC joint injury to his shoulder since initially injuring it since Week 9, but two straight DNPs this week makes the 25-year-old worth watching heading into Sunday's divisional matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. It's entirely possible that the Cowboys are just giving their star wideout some extra rest in the penultimate game of the 2024 season, but if he isn't able to practice on Friday, there's a real chance that Lamb could miss Week 17. If that comes to pass, the Cowboys would be down to
Brandin Cooks and
Jalen Tolbert as their top wideouts. Lamb has remained a must-start fantasy wideout, even after quarterback
Dak Prescott's (hamstring) season-ending injury.

3 months agoDallas Cowboys wide receiver
CeeDee Lamb caught seven of his eight targets for 105 yards during Sunday's Week 16 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 25-year-old has remained productive with
Cooper Rush under center, delivering steady WR1-caliber numbers over the last three weeks. Fantasy managers should continue to start their studs, including Lamb, as the playoffs continue. However, managers should also temper expectations next week as Lamb takes on the Philadelphia Eagles, who have one of the NFL's best secondaries in terms of limiting opposing receivers' fantasy points. The last time he faced Philadelphia, the Cowboys' top receiver caught just six of 10 targets for just 21 yards through the air.
