Cowboys QB Dak Prescott’s hamstring injury was worse than initially feared. He is expected to miss multiple weeks, sources tell me and Tom Pelissero.

Some thought it would initially be a short-term injury, but that doesn't appear to be the case. It's a big blow for the Cowboys who were already struggling this year, but Rush at QB likely won't help the overall passing game, and it's a downgrade for Lamb owners as well. The Cowboys could try and play a little more a ball-control offense, but their run game is among the worst in the league. The Cowboys will host the Eagles this week who have been on a bit of a roll defensively.

Mike McCarthy said CeeDee Lamb and Trevon Diggs will be limited today "not of high concern," MM said. Mazi Smith has a back issue and Cowboys still trying to figure that out.

Looks like Lamb is on pace to be cleared ahead of Week 3. Fire him up everywhere.

The Cowboys activated WR CeeDee Lamb from the exempt list Saturday, making him eligible to play Sunday against the Browns.

This was a formality for the Cowboys now that Lamb has his new contract as the second-highest-paid receiver in terms of average annual value, behind only Justin Jefferson. Jefferson is arguably the No. 1 fantasy option at wide receiver following his incredible 2023 season. Even against a strong defense such as Cleveland's, Lamb is matchup-proof.

CeeDee Lamb will be back for the start of the season.

According to multiple reports, Lamb and the Cowboys have agreed to a four-year contract extension to end the receiver’s holdout.

The story went on to say initial reports indicate Lamb’s deal is worth $136 million, which includes $100 million guaranteed with a $38 million signing bonus. That means Lamb will get an average annual value of $34 million, which is just below the $35 million Justin Jefferson received earlier in the offseason, the story added. Lamb is often the top receiver off the boards in drafts this year, and as we point out, things are mostly unchanged in the Dallas offense. We project Lamb for a monster season with a line of 119-1,563-10.9.

Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News reports that Lamb is not expected to report to training camp in Oxnard, California if he has not come to an agreement with the team on a new pact. The Cowboys hold their first training camp practice on July 25.

A little extra work for third-year Jalen Tolbert would be promising after he finished his first two seasons with a combined 24 receptions. While we don't expect Lamb to miss any regular season time, we'll keep an eye on the situation.

Cowboys star WR CeeDee Lamb has not been spotted in Dallas for mandatory minicamp. Lamb has not been present for voluntary OTAs, but is not reporting to minicamp, which subjects a player to fines.

Lamb seeks a new contract extension.

This is always a tricky path in fantasy, as we've seen holdouts last into the regular season, and that puts a question mark on his value in drafts. Lamb is the WR1 in current 4for4 Rankings, but missing time will obviously put a damper on that. We'll keep an eye on the situation throughout the offseason.

CeeDee Lamb's absence has opened up opportunities for the Cowboys' young wide receivers, such as Jalen Tolbert, their third-round pick in 2022. After releasing Michael Gallup earlier in the offseason and not addressing the position yet with a known commodity in free agency or early in the draft, Tolbert has the chance to take the No. 3 role behind Lamb and Brandin Cooks.

Tolbert has had modest numbers through his first two professional seasons and was inactive for nine games during his rookie year. If he locks in the WR3 job he could be an interesting dart throw late in drafts.

Cowboys begin their voluntary spring workout program one week from today. Barring a surprise departure from precedent, WR CeeDee Lamb won’t participate, as a potential holdout looms.

Gehlken continues, "Barring a contract extension that, when complete, is expected to make Lamb the highest-paid wide receiver in NFL history, Lamb won’t take the field."

This is always a tricky path in fantasy, as we've seen holdouts last into the regular season, and that puts a question mark on his value in drafts. Lamb is the WR2 in current 4for4 Rankings, but missing time will obviously put a damper on that. We'll keep an eye on the situation throughout the offseason.

Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb was estimated as a limited practice participant Monday with an ankle injury. But he was upgraded to full participation Tuesday and guarantees he will play Thanksgiving Day.

Lamb was quotes in the story as saying, “I’m straight. I’ll be out there,” Lamb said, via Todd Archer of ESPN. He's been perhaps the hottest fantasy player as of late and owners should again have high expectations heading into a game with the Commanders.

The Cowboys again have high expectations for Jalen Tolbert heading into the 2023 season.

“We had high expectations last year for him,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday. “He’s living up those we had for him last year this year without equivocation.”

Tolbert has locked up the fourth wide receiver spot behind CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks and Michael Gallup, executive vice president Stephen Jones said Tuesday.

Last year, Tolbert appeared in only eight games, playing 89 offensive snaps and 53 on special teams and making only two catches for 12 yards. While this is likely only news for deeper leagues, Tolbert could be an injury away from having fantasy value.
