The Dallas Cowboys will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR CeeDee Lamb.

Should You Start or Sit CeeDee Lamb in Week 1?
A new year means plenty of change. Some things have sparked (“Kai” is the most popular baby name, up 120 spots from 2024, and ESPN now owns the Red Zone channel) while some oldies have become good again (Damian Lillard is a Trail Blazer and Happy Gilmore is back in the public consciousness).
CeeDee Lamb’s role doesn’t fit into either box. There’s nothing new to see here: he’s reached double-digit targets in an NFL-best 18 games since the beginning of 2023. For reference, the Mike Evans and Chris Godwin tandem has combined for 16 such games over that stretch.
If you want to dock him fractions of points for adding George Pickens, be my guest, but there’s nothing actionable on that front. You should be thrilled to have this combination of stability and ceiling.
Matchup proof. Script proof. Proof of negative analysis. Don’t overthink it.
