CeeDee Lamb is back in the saddle.
The Dallas Cowboys four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver has cleared concussion protocol and is in line to play Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Friday.
Lamb was concussed on Dec. 4 in his team's Week 14 loss to the Detroit Lions. With the game taking place on a Thursday, though, Lamb had some extra time to get through the protocol. He was at practice Wednesday in a limited capacity and upgraded to a full participant by Thursday, foreshadowing his availability for Sunday.
Before Lamb was ruled out against the Lions, he'd compiled six receptions for 121 yards, turning in his second straight 100-yard outing and his fifth of the season.
Despite having missed three games earlier this season with an ankle injury, Lamb is still en route to a fifth consecutive 1,000-yard campaign, having posted 57 receptions for 865 yards and three touchdowns so far.
Lamb and George Pickens (78/1,179/8) have quickly assembled into one of the NFL's most formidable WR duos. They'll be back at it again against Minnesota, hoping to keep Dallas' slim playoff hopes alive.
Per Next Gen Stats, the Cowboys have an 11% playoff probability, which will drop to 3% with a loss and increase to 15% with a win.
The Cowboys (6-6-1) kick off against the visiting Vikings (5-8) at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday.
