Lamb exited Sunday’s loss on the road against the Chicago Bears early and was clearly favoring his ankle. He tried to go back in for a play, but it was obviously too much for him.
High-ankle sprains can be tricky in the NFL and it goes without saying that each one is different. The DMN’s Calvin Watkins noted that a source told him that the Cowboys are thinking Lamb could be out 2-4 weeks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter corroborated that idea as well.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb suffered a high ankle sprain during Sunday’s loss to the Bears that makes him unlikely to play Sunday night vs. the Packers, per sources. The Cowboys want to see how Lamb is doing the next 10-14 days before making further determinations about his status. pic.twitter.com/Md7TDwp5Fy

The next four weeks for the Cowboys:
- Green Bay Packers (2-1)
- at New York Jets (0-3)
- at Carolina Panthers (1-2)
- Washington Commanders (2-1)
Those are some difficult games and winning them even with Lamb will be difficult given the current play of the Cowboys defense.
