Cowboys’ Lamb returns home, wows with 17-catch day: Means ‘everything’

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb caught 17 passes for 189 yards, including the winning 12-yard touchdown with 40 seconds remaining, to secure a 34-30 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday. Playing in his first game at Reliant Stadium near his hometown of Richmond, Texas, Lamb was targeted 21 times by quarterback Dak Prescott as a large group of family members watched.

Lamb's 17 receptions are the second most in Cowboys franchise history, trailing only Jason Witten's 18 catches in 2012. The performance also marked Lamb's 30th career game with at least 100 receiving yards, allowing him to pass Hall of Famer Drew Pearson for fourth place on the Cowboys' all-time receiving yardage list.
