Is CeeDee Lamb Injured or Playing in Week 10?
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb left Sunday's game against Atlanta with a shoulder injury, which was later deemed to be a sprained AC joint.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Monday that "Lamb's shoulder is sore [but] the injury is not considered serious."

What's more, Schefter suggested that Lamb could play in Week 10 against the Eagles.
That doesn't necessarily mean he will play, as he could certainly suffer a setback before kick-off on Saturday. However, fantasy managers should be optimistic about the star receiver's chances of suiting up this weekend.
CeeDee Lamb Fantasy Football Injury Outlook
If the Cowboys were at 100%, Lamb would be a top-five play at wide receiver, but it looks like Dak Prescott will be sidelined, with Cooper Rush expected to start at quarterback for the Cowboys.
Rush is a pretty big downgrade from Prescott. Still, during the five-game stretch in 2022 when Rush was the starting quarterback for the Cowboy, Lamb played well, averaging 6.2 receptions on 9.8 targets for 76.0 yards per game.
CeeDee Lamb in Weeks 2-6 of 2022 when Cooper rush filled in for Dak:
- 7 catches, 75 yards
- 8 catches, 87 yards, 1 TD
- 6 catches, 97 yards, 1 TD
- 5 catches, 53 yards
- 5 catches, 68 yards https://t.co/tzztZZX0uj— Field Yates (@FieldYates) November 4, 2024
He might be closer to the low end of the WR1 tier with Rush under center, but he remains a must-start fantasy option in all formats.
If Lamb does sit, the team would lean on Jalen Tolbert as its No. 1 receiver. That's not something Cowboys fans want to see. This offense needs Lamb to be a viable offense in Week 10.
