The Dallas Cowboys will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10. 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 10?
CeeDee Lamb seemed to be battling a right shoulder issue throughout Sunday’s game. He received attention from trainers throughout the first half but never entered the medical tent or exited the contest. However, Lamb landed hard on that shoulder while trying to reel in an end-zone attempt from Cooper Rush at the start of the fourth quarter.
After the game, ESPN’s Todd Archer reported that Lamb “is dealing with a right AC joint issue with his shoulder” and added that he will have an MRI to evaluate the severity.
The good news is that Lamb spoke on Thursday and indicated that his condition had improved significantly. He noted that he didn’t even intend to wear a brace on his shoulder. Lamb was officially removed from Dallas’ injury report on Friday and will play in Week 10.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb sounds like he’s good to go for Sunday against the Eagles. “My shoulder is much better than it was on Sunday, 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.”

Lamb was limited during practice both Wednesday and Thursday. As long as he can play against Philadelphia, Lamb will still be a top-five fantasy wideout. But his upside might not be there with Rush at QB instead of Dak Prescott.
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 10?
There are plenty of moving pieces in Dallas these days, but CeeDee Lamb should be relatively immune. That’s not to say that Cooper Rush doesn’t lower the projectable ceiling of maybe the best receiver in the sport, but there’s no real action to make — you’re playing him.
All Lamb did was turn 26 targets into 17 catches, 262 yards, and a touchdown against these Eagles last season. He’s seen double-digit targets in each of his past four games against the divisional rival, a game plan that I suspect to be in place this weekend, even with a different triggerman.
Are we going to get Lamb at a significant ownership discount in the DFS streets?

PFN Insights on the Philadelphia Eagles’ Defense
We have seen the Philadelphia Eagles struggle this season when they face a top-10 offense but have been very good against lesser offenses. That is exactly what we would expect to see from a borderline top-10 unit that has been ranked in the top 10 four times in eight games this season.
The Eagles’ defense has been solid across the board this year but ranks 23rd in turnover percentage. They are a top-10 unit when facing the run, as well as in terms of red-zone efficiency (sixth), yards per play (fifth), and points per drive (seventh). Meanwhile, they rank just outside the top 10 in pass defense.
