In a heart-wrenching 28-25 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens, the Dallas Cowboys found themselves once again on the losing end of a disappointing home game. The loss did not sit well with all players, as tensions ran high on the field and in the locker room.
Quarterback Dak Prescott, who had a stellar performance with 379 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one rushing touchdown, was at the center of a heated exchange with star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb during the game. The altercation, caught on camera, showed Prescott and Lamb arguing on the sideline while the Cowboys’ offense was off the field. While the exact words were unclear, lip-readers speculated that Lamb had something to get off his chest.
“I’m not going nowhere Imma be here all day,” Lamb was seen telling Prescott as the quarterback walked away. Despite his critical fumble in the red zone during the second quarter, Lamb finished the game with four catches for 67 yards. The All-Pro receiver recently signed a lucrative four-year, $136 million deal after a contentious holdout, but it appears that there may still be some work to do in developing chemistry with Prescott this season. So far, Lamb has 13 catches for 218 yards and one touchdown through the first three games of the year.
As the Cowboys now stand at a 1-2 record, they will have to regroup and refocus for their upcoming division rivalry game against the New York Giants. The pressure is on for the team to bounce back and prove their resilience in the face of adversity.
