CeeDee Lamb discusses drop issues ahead of Cowboys' season
Summary

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb addressed his tendency for dropped passes during a recent interview on 105.3 The Fan. Lamb noted that while he had eight drops in the 2025 season, six occurred in two games against Philadelphia. He emphasized his approach to targeting each pass as catchable and identified his drops stemming from taking his eyes off the ball too soon. The Pro Bowl receiver is focused on improving his catch rate, which ranked him 36th and 48th in the NFL for the past two seasons. Lamb's connection with quarterback Dak Prescott has been productive, but he aims for increased efficiency as the season approaches.
