He missed time early in the season due to a sprained ankle. He was benched for one series in one game after he returned for disciplinary reasons. His production has dropped a bit as the Cowboys have gotten George Pickens more involved.

The pain continued Thursday night. Lamb, who was having a big game with 121 yards early in the third quarter, dove for a deep pass in the end zone and contorted his body trying to catch it with one hand. He couldn’t catch it and then he landed hard and his head slammed into the ground. Lamb appeared to be in a fencing position that sometimes occurs with serious concussions.
Lamb was helped out, diagnosed with a concussion and taken to the locker room shortly after. He was ruled out for the rest of the game.
The Cowboys were having a rough night on offense before Lamb’s injury, and losing one of their star receivers didn’t make it any easier.
