The Dallas Cowboys 2024 NFL season continues to be a long stretch of bad news. In the face of constant doubts about his continuity, head coach Mike McCarthy must now face a tough update related to the injury to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.

What appeared to be a campaign in which the Cowboys had their sights set on the Super Bowl has turned into a series of unfortunate events. First, the season was marred by the season-ending injury to star Dak Prescott, but the key absences continue affecting the team that is out of the playoffs.

McCarthy‘s contract is up at the end of the year, so even in what could be his final games, he won’t be able to use the lineup he wants. Throughout the year, the Cowboys head coach has had to deal with a number of sensitive losses in his roster. In this case, related to Lamb, Dallas made a final announcement.

Injuries continue to be a problem for the Cowboys

The question will remain as to what the Cowboys’ season would have been like without so many injuries, but the truth is that the team that took the field in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season is very different from the one that will finish the current campaign. Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Zack Martin, DeMarvion Overshown, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Trevon Diggs are the starters from the first game who saw their year end early due to injury.
