CeeDee Lamb had an epic 17-catch game, but it wasn't even the top WR fantasy football performance this season

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb put on a spectacular performance on Sunday, catching 17 passes for 189 yards and scoring the game-winning touchdown as the Cowboys defeated the Houston Texans 34-30. Lamb's fantasy football performance was exceptional, as he amassed 32.80 fantasy points in half-PPR scoring, setting the standard for the most points scored by any player in Week 4 at the time of writing.

While Lamb's performance was remarkable, it is essential to note that it did not break any records in the history of the NFL or fantasy football. In fact, Jaxon Smith-Njigba of the Houston Texans led the league in fantasy points this season, with an impressive 38.00 fantasy points on Week 2, which included nine receptions, 155 yards, and three touchdowns. However, Lamb's 17 receptions and 32.80 fantasy points in half-PPR scoring still stand as the highest of any player in Week 4.

Despite the fact that Lamb did not surpass Smith-Njigba's fantasy points tally in full-PPR scoring, his performance remains noteworthy. In PPR leagues, Lamb finished with 41.30 fantasy points on Sunday, which is still 1.00 point behind Smith-Njigba's 42.50 fantasy points in Week 2. Lamb also had a strong Week 2, contributing 31.30 fantasy points on eight catches for 153 yards and two touchdowns, which ranked fourth in the league for wide receivers this season.

With an average draft position (ADP) of 11.8 in 12-team leagues, Lamb was considered a borderline first-round pick. He has consistently delivered, scoring double-digit fantasy points in all four games and averaging 23.43 points per game thus far. With the Cowboys allowing an average of 28 points per game, there is no doubt that Lamb and his fantasy managers will continue to see more receptions and touchdowns in the weeks to come.
