Sports Illustrated reports Lamb will return against the Commanders in Texas.

CeeDee Lamb to play in Cowboys vs. Commanders

Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb missed three games in a row after he sustained a high left ankle sprain during the week 3 game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. However, following sufficient rest, Lamb has finally recovered from the injury and will play against the Washington Commanders this Sunday.

“I feel like I’m moving around, running around being me,” Lamb recently said, as per CNBC. Through Todd Archer of ESPN, Lamb added that he was “happy” since his ankle was “back to where I needed it to be”.

According to Sports Illustrated, in his current condition, CeeDee Lamb can function “without limitations” against the Washington Commanders.

CeeDee Lamb’s impact on Cowboys vs. Commanders

Dak Prescott, the quarterback (QB) for the Dallas Cowboys, heavily relies on CeeDee Lamb’s ability to catch passes and gain yards. As Sports Illustrated reports, Dak Prescott threw 24 total passes to Lamb in his two complete games this season. Lamb, on the other hand, was able to make 16 receptions.

Besides, in 2023, Lamb led the league in terms of catches (135) he made. Undoubtedly, Lamb’s return will give a boost to the offense of the Dallas Cowboys against the Commanders.
