Cowboys Penalized After Lamb Collides With Official

During the Dallas Cowboys' preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, who was not dressed to play, collided with a sideline official while celebrating a play, resulting in both being knocked to the ground and the Cowboys receiving a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for a 'foul on an official.' The collision offset a 51-yard defensive pass interference penalty that would have benefited Dallas. Fortunately, neither Lamb nor the official were injured, and Lamb was seen laughing with teammates afterward. The episode drew attention to continued penalty issues for the Cowboys, now under head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The team had rested most starters, including Lamb, Dak Prescott, and new acquisition George Pickens. As the preseason continues, the Cowboys are preparing for their regular season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.
