The Dallas Cowboys hope to improve to 2-1 on the young 2025 NFL season with a win Sunday against the Chicago Bears, after last week’s dramatic victory over the New York Giants.

But they might be without their best receiver in that effort against Chicago.

Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb limped off the field early in Sunday’s game against the Bears and was taken to the blue medical tent with an apparent ankle injury. He’s been ruled out for the game.

Update (Monday): Lamb has been diagnosed with a high left ankle sprain and is expected to be out three to four weeks, per Ed Werder. At this point the Cowboys are not placing him on the Injured Reserve list.

Previous:

He was taken to the tent following this play against Chicago:

Last week in the win over the Giants Lamb caught 9 passes for 112 yards. Over two games this season he has 16 receptions for 222 yards, but has yet to reach the end zone.

Lamb was officially listed as questionable to return to the game by the Cowboys.

Lamb returned for one play, and came up limping. He’s back on the sidelines now.

Note: This is a developing story that will be updated as more infornation becomes available regarding Lamb’s status.
