The Dallas Cowboys will face the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR CeeDee Lamb.
Is CeeDee Lamb Playing in Week 14?
Lamb was a DNP in the first practice of the week on Thursday with a shoulder injury. However, it doesn’t sound like anything to be concerned about, which Lamb stated himself after practice.
Indeed, Lamb returned for a limited practice on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. He was removed from the injury report and has no injury designation heading into Monday night’s game against the Bengals.
Lamb was limited to all three practices ahead of Week 13, but he was also listed with a back injury, which has since been removed. This is simply his lingering AC joint sprain that has hampered him since he originally suffered it in Week 9 vs. the Falcons.
We’ll continue to monitor the Cowboys’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit CeeDee Lamb in Week 14?
That’s three straight games without an end-zone target for Lamb and five straight without a score. He is hanging on for dear life to his status as a lineup lock in this Cooper Rush-led offense, but fortunately, the NFL gods prescribed him the best cure for his recent struggles:
The Cincinnati Bengals.
The road team has the eighth-highest opponent pass touchdown rate and has seen a receiver reach 18 PPR points on 10 occasions. More encouraging than that raw number are two of the names on that list: Jakobi Meyers and Diontae Johnson (with Carolina) both did despite well below-average quarterback play.
I’ve got Lamb ranked as a top-10 receiver this week and am optimistic that we see glimpses of greatness on Monday night, even if the upside for this offense is capped.
