CeeDee Lamb sheds walking boot, returns to Cowboys practice field

Dallas Cowboys superstar wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is currently out with a high-ankle sprain suffered in a Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears, which forced him to miss the team's 40-40 tie with the Green Bay Packers last weekend.

There was no set timetable for Lamb's return, with a typical high ankle sprain taking between four to six weeks for players to recover.

Lamb, however, appears to be on a positive timeline, which explains why the Cowboys did not place him on injured reserve when the injury was officially confirmed.

During Wednesday's practice session, Lamb was out of a walking boot and on the field with his jersey. While Lamb did not participate in the practice, he was off to the side working with the rehab group.

While there is no indication of when Lamb will return to the field for Dallas, it's great to see he has shed the boot and is already beginning the on-field rehab process.

Let's hope Lamb can avoid any setback and return to the field sooner rather than later.
