Lamb suffered a shoulder injury late in Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons, but the star wide receiver sounds like he’s ready to go.

“My shoulder is much better than it was on Sunday,” Lamb told reporters. “I’ll tell you that. I feel like I’ve taken a big step these last 2-3 days. I’m good. I was out there running today.”

Before getting injured against the Falcons, Lamb was held to eight catches for 47 yards and there was some concern that his shoulder injury could linger or limit his availability for Sunday’s critical NFC East clash.

How CeeDee Lamb Says the Dallas Cowboys Can Turn Things Around

This season has not played out the way the Dallas Cowboys hoped or planned.

Dallas’ defense has been decimated by injuries, with All-Pro pass rushers Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence missing significant time due to injury, and All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland also sidelined, in addition to Lamb’s injury and quarterback Dak Prescott potentially heading to injured reserve.

Yet, the Cowboys enter Sunday’s game at 3-5, facing what amounts to a must-win game against the Eagles to keep any flickering postseason hopes alive.

Lamb believes that his teammates have the right mindset at the second half of the season gets underway.

“We still got to have that fighter’s mentality, and I’m a firm believer in it,” Lamb said, via the Cowboys’ official website. “Obviously you’re going to get hit in the mouth at some point, it’s all about how you respond.”
