It could have happened last week; it's happening this week: CeeDee Lamb is back for the Dallas Cowboys.
Having missed the past couple of weeks with an ankle sprain, Lamb will now make his return against the Washington Commanders to give Dak Prescott his ultimate weapon back.
With the Cowboys in need of getting things rolling at 2-3-1 before the season gets away from them, having the All-Pro back in the saddle alongside George Pickens and a host of other weapons like KaVontae Turpin and Jake Ferguson, Dallas will put up points.
As far as 88 returning, yeah, Dak is hyped.
“A lot of excitement, and then just the last two days of practice, he looks good,” Prescott said. “He's ready to go. I saw him last week during the rehab and probably could have went [played vs. Panthers] then being careful. But he's ready to go. Looks great. It's going to be fun.”

Weapons-wise, yes, but center Cooper Beebe is still out, but Lamb, Turpin, and guard Tyler Booker all look set to return at AT&T Stadium in what is becoming nearly a must-win for Dallas.
The Commanders' defense has given up big point totals this season already (34, 27, 25), and the Cowboys boast one of the best offenses in football, and that was without Lamb. Now, the Dallas unit takes on a whole other level of scariness, not to mention what Turpin's return does for the offense and return game.
Prescott and Co. have to be perfect if the Cowboys are to win games in 2025, and having an All-Pro receiver and All-Pro returner coming back certainly helps with that.
