FRISCO, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving victory over the New York Giants in Week 13 was almost perfect — except for All-Pro wide receiver CeeDee Lamb reaggravating the AC join sprain injury in his shoulder.
Lamb tweaked the AC joint sprain in his right shoulder with approximately eight minutes left in the third quarter. He attempted to play through the injury but departed the game after a few plays. However, he brought good news about his injury to light after the team’s Thursday practice: he’ll be good to go for “Monday Night Football” against the Cincinnati Bengals (4-8). He originally suffered the injury in Week 9 at the Atlanta Falcons when he fell on his shoulder three times. Lamb powered through the injury to stay in the game that day, and he played the entirety of Weeks 10-12 against the Philadelphia Eagles, Houston Texans and Washington Commanders.
“I still have a shoulder injury, which I’ve been dealing with for about four or five weeks now,” Lamb said Thursday. “It comes with the territory man. It’s about being a baller, and it’s about going out there and sacrificing and putting yourself out there for your guys. That’s what I’m doing. As far as Monday goes, I’ll be fine by then.”
