The Dallas Cowboys are hoping that star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will be able to play this Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.
Lamb suffered a concussion in Dallas' 44-30 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 14, but according to Todd Archer of ESPN, the expectation is that he'll be able to play against the Vikings barring any setbacks.
This is the second concussion of Lamb's NFL career and could be a scary time for him, but he revealed that he's taking it all in stride.
"Nah, in a situation like that, bro, as far as getting hurt or getting a concussion, it's not like you're thinking about, 'Oh, what if? What if I get hurt again?'" Lamb said on Thursday, per Archer. "I feel like if you live in that realm and you feed that fuel it's going to happen. And you don't want to live in a realm like that it's never going to happen again. Really, it's [about] staying level, just being positive about each and every opportunity you get and just staying blessed."
Lamb suffered the injury early in the third quarter against the Lions. He went up for a pass in the end zone and came down hard, hitting his head on the ground in the process. It was a scary moment as he exhibited symptoms of a brain injury immediately afterword.

On Thursday, Lamb revealed that he saw the play in which he got injured basically everywhere he turned. He does remember the moment, though.
"It was all over my phone. I couldn't miss it," he said. "I will say: I remember everything. I wasn't — I don't know, I can't say I wasn't knocked out because clearly I was — but I remember everything."
Lamb does wear a Guardian cap during practices, but he doesn't want to wear one in games.
"It's not comfortable," he explained.
