Cowboys Get Encouraging Injury News on WR CeeDee Lamb

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb suffered a quad bruise during the second quarter of the team's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday. He tried to continue playing despite the injury, but ended up taking additional hits on the affected area. Fortunately for Lamb, the Cowboys had some extra time to focus on his recovery before the team's upcoming Week 6 matchup against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

Lamb participated fully in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday, and he is not expected to face any limitations during the primetime Sunday Night Football game against the Packers. "As far as the extra days [off], I took advantage immediately. Got a lot of time to rest. Got a lot of time to get some rehab. So, kind of back to square one now," Lamb told reporters on Thursday, according to team insider Jon Machota of The Athletic.

In the team's previous game, a loss to the Houston Texans, Lamb managed only two catches for nine yards. Before that, he had a strong performance with 17 catches for 189 yards and a touchdown. The Cowboys currently stand at 2-3 on the season ahead of their Week 6 matchup against the Packers.
