CeeDee Lamb addresses false partying rumors
CeeDee Lamb is pushing back against claims questioning his ability to handle his liquor. The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver took issue with a rumor that surfaced over the weekend, one that suggested he was unable to manage his drinking after a night out.
The backdrop of the game
The Dallas Cowboys returned to form with a decisive 33-16 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. However, the focus quickly shifted from the win to off-field chatter. During the opening drive of the game, both Lamb and fellow receiver George Pickens were conspicuously absent, which raised eyebrows among fans and analysts alike.
Disciplinary action
Following the game, it was revealed that the two players were benched due to a late-night incident. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones confirmed that the receivers faced disciplinary action for a “late problem.” This revelation sparked a flurry of speculation surrounding the nature of their absence.
Setting the record straight
Among the swirling rumors, one claim particularly stung Lamb. Reports suggested that he was seen throwing up at 7:30 a.m. after a late night of partying. Lamb vehemently denied this assertion, firmly stating, “I can hold my liquor better than that.” He made it clear that while he did miss curfew alongside Pickens, the exaggerated story about his condition was far from the truth.
The young receiver’s strong response emphasizes that he is not only focused on the game but also willing to defend his reputation against unfounded claims. As the season progresses, Lamb will undoubtedly be looking to channel any distractions into performance on the field.
