CeeDee Lamb Injury: Cowboys Get Positive Update on Star Wide Receiver

CeeDee Lamb Cowboys Bears Jon Machota Noah Sewell

Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb appeared to suffer a painful injury to his left leg in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Bears.

Lamb seemed to get injured after Bears linebacker Noah Sewell rolled up on the back of his leg on a Cowboys play out of the backfield. A replay video shows Sewell's leg knocking into Lamb's left leg, causing it to bend at an awkward angle.

Lamb left the game and had his left ankle evaluated by medical staff in the blue tent, per The Athletic's Jon Machota. It looked like the Cowboys trainers re-taped his ankle and then sent him back out there, but on the first play in the second quarter, Lamb pulled up on a deep route and took himself out of the game.

Lamb stopped short on his run and put all his weight on his right foot, hobbling to the sidelines:

While the injury clearly didn’t look good, the Cowboys did get a somewhat positive update after the team’s loss to the Bears, with Jon Machota of The Athletic reporting that Lamb believes he can “absolutely” play next week.

We will have to wait to see how the injury report shakes out this week for Dallas, but it appears that the team has at least avoided the worst potential scenario with its star receiver.
