This Thanksgiving Day, the Dallas Cowboys took on the New York Giants, winning the game with a final score of 27-20. While the win was certainly a reason to celebrate, not everyone felt the same way. Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady had a few words to say about the team, especially about CeeDee Lamb in particular.
In that game, Dallas leaned heavily on QB Cooper Rush who went for 195 yards, completing 21 passes out of 36 attempts, scoring a single TD, while Rico Dowdle led the rushing with 22 carries for 12 yards, along with a solo score. However, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb seemed to disappoint, dropping three passes, which managed to get Brady’s attention.
“Wow. It’s actually a perfect throw from (Cooper) Rush. A-plus. Look at CeeDee turn his head (before making the catch). You just don’t see that from him very often. This guy is one of the great wide receivers in the NFL right now. He doesn’t expect to drop one ball all season.” Brady said.

Brady lauded praises about Cooper Rush’s performance but was surprised that a seasoned player like CeeDee Lamb would drop a crucial pass such as that. The missed catch apparently seemed to deter Lamb’s game against the Giants. Lamb only managed a pair of catches in that matchup for a total of 39 yards.
CeeDee Lamb Injured In Thanksgiving Game Against NY Giants
On another note, CeeDee Lamb seems to have injured himself in the game against the New York Giants on Thanksgiving Day. The wide receiver showed signs of being injured during the third quarter after he was tackled by Dru Philips of the NY Giants. Lamb’s shoulder was the point of injury, with the receiver seen clutching it and leaving the field.
However, the injury does not seem to be too aggressive, since the player managed to return to the field after one play. Still, it looks like Lamb is taking it slow, leaving the field shortly after the play and not returning to play. Whether the injury was the reason for the receiver’s poor performance in that game or not cannot be confirmed right now.
The team’s management also did not provide an official update about the nature of CeeDee Lamb’s injury. However, it is also common knowledge that the receiver has been playing with a shoulder injury this entire season, most specifically in his acromioclavicular (AC) joint.
