CeeDee Lamb out for season: Cowboys shutting down All-Pro receiver due to shoulder injury
FRISCO, Texas — With only two games remaining in the regular season, the Dallas Cowboys (7-8) are shutting wide receiver down for the rest of 2024.
The 2023 All-Pro has been battling through an AC joint sprain in his shoulder since Dallas’ Week 9 game at the Atlanta Falcons, and after Lamb aggravated it on Sunday night in the Cowboys’ win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he said his focus was keeping the shoulder “attached to my body.”
The Cowboys released the following statement about Lamb’s status:
“Additional examinations and scans this week on CeeDee Lamb’s shoulder have determined that his injury has now progressed to a point that he will be listed as “Out” for the remaining two games of the season. He will undergo a process of treatment and rehabilitation for his shoulder, is not currently expected to require surgery and is projected to make a full recovery.”
Lamb will finish the season with 101 catches (tied for the second-most in the NFL entering Week 17) for 1,194 receiving yards (third in the NFL entering Week 16) and six receiving touchdowns despite quarterback Dak Prescott being out for the season with a torn hamstring since Week 9.
The Dallas Cowboys announced today that star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will be out for the remainder of the season due to a shoulder injury. The team has decided to shut down the All-Pro receiver in order to prioritize his long-term health and ensure he is fully recovered for next season.
Lamb, who has been a key playmaker for the Cowboys this season, suffered the injury during last week’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Despite initial hopes that he could return to the field in the coming weeks, further evaluation has revealed the severity of the injury and the need for extended rest and rehabilitation.
Losing Lamb is a significant blow for the Cowboys, as he has been a reliable target for quarterback Dak Prescott and a game-changer on offense. However, the team is confident in their depth at the wide receiver position and will look to other players to step up in Lamb’s absence.
Cowboys fans will undoubtedly miss seeing Lamb on the field, but the decision to prioritize his health is the right one for his long-term success in the NFL. Here’s to a speedy recovery for CeeDee Lamb and a strong return next season. #GetWellSoonCeeDeeLamb.
