Dallas Cowboys All-Pro receiver CeeDee Lamb recently celebrated his 26th birthday, and a couple of fellow wideouts showed him some love. Rashee Rice and Hollywood Brown took to social media to send Lamb birthday shout-outs with heartfelt messages.
Lamb is coming off a down year in 2024 and should be hoping to help lead the Cowboys back to the playoffs in 2025.
CeeDee Lamb Gets Birthday Shout-Outs From Rashee Rice, Hollywood Brown
Dallas drafted Lamb in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and he quickly became one of the league’s top receivers. In 16 games as a rookie, he recorded 74 catches for 935 yards and five touchdowns. His production was limited after Dak Prescott went down with an ankle injury, but the foundation was in place for what’s turned into a stellar career.
With Prescott back in 2021, Lamb bumped up his numbers to 79 catches for 1,102 yards and six touchdowns. He earned his first Pro Bowl nod and helped the Cowboys win the NFC East. In 2022, Lamb took another step, topping 100 receptions and earning second-team All-Pro honors. Dallas made the playoffs again that season, with Lamb totaling 14 receptions for 185 yards and a touchdown in two postseason games.
Lamb’s best year so far came in 2023. He led the league with 135 receptions on 181 targets, finishing with 1,749 yards and 12 receiving touchdowns, plus two rushing scores. He was named first-team All-Pro.
After holding out of the 2024 offseason program and part of training camp, Lamb landed a four-year, $136 million extension. The deal made him the second-highest-paid receiver in the league then, trailing only Justin Jefferson.
Prescott missed half of the 2024 season, and Lamb’s numbers dipped—though not dramatically. He still finished with 101 receptions, 1,194 yards, and six touchdowns, earning second-team All-Pro honors again. Now, he’s looking to bounce back strong in 2025.
But before starting work on Dallas’ offseason program, Lamb received birthday love from Rice and Brown, who both posted pictures celebrating the five-year veteran.
Rice captioned his post, “Bag Day Big Bruh! Stay Blessed.”
The Kansas City Chiefs wideout had a breakout stretch late in his rookie season, but a knee injury ended his 2024 campaign early. Still, he’s expected to be Patrick Mahomes’ No. 1 option in 2025.
Brown added his own message: “Happy Birthday To My Right hand, keep shinning brudda.”
Lamb and Brown were teammates at Oklahoma from 2017 to 2018. Both topped 1,150 receiving yards in 2018, helping the Sooners make a College Football Playoff run. Brown re-signed with the Chiefs this offseason after playing just five games last year.
Lamb remains one of the NFL’s premier players, and it’s always cool to see fellow receivers show respect on his big day.
