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.
