The absence of star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb at Cowboys training camp has raised eyebrows across the league, but quarterback Dak Prescott isn’t flinching. While fans and analysts debate the holdout, Prescott is doubling down on his leadership role and maintaining focus inside the locker room.
Lamb, entering the final year of his rookie deal, has not reported to camp as contract negotiations continue. It’s a headline-making absence, especially as Dallas looks to build momentum ahead of the 2025 season. But according to those inside the facility, the mood remains steady—thanks largely to the quarterback's tone-setting presence.
Speaking to media on Tuesday, Prescott made it clear that he respects Lamb’s decision, but he's committed to building chemistry with the players on the field. “We all support CeeDee,” Prescott said. “But right now, we’re focused on getting better with the guys who are here. That’s what leaders do.”
Prescott’s rapport with receivers like Brandin Cooks, Jalen Tolbert, and newcomer George Pickens has turned heads in early workouts. Coaches are reportedly impressed with his command and chemistry, even without his top target.
While Lamb’s return remains uncertain, Prescott’s leadership could be the glue that holds Dallas together through camp. The Cowboys know they’ll need No. 88 eventually—but until then, their captain is keeping the ship steady.
