CeeDee Lamb happy with ankle, ready to return for Cowboys - ESPN

FRISCO, Texas — Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said he is ready to return to the lineup Sunday against the Washington Commanders after missing the past three games with a high left ankle sprain.

Lamb went through a limited practice for the second straight day Thursday, but he said it won't take him long to get back up to speed.

Lamb suffered the injury in the first half of a Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Without him, the Cowboys have maintained a high-scoring offense with quarterback Dak Prescott (10 touchdown passes, no interceptions) and wide receiver George Pickens (two 100-yard games, four touchdowns).

«A lot of excitement,» Prescott said about Lamb's return. «Just the last two days of practice, he looks good. He's ready to go. Obviously, I saw him last weekend during rehab, and he probably could've went then. Being careful. But he's ready to go. Looks great. It's going to be fun.»

Lamb had two 100-yard outings to open the season before getting hurt. With 51 scrimmage yards against the Commanders, Lamb would reach 7,000 for his career, hitting that mark in 85 games — the quickest in team history.

He also has a streak of three straight 100-catch, 1,000-yard seasons.
