Lamb says casino visit led to curfew violation with fellow Cowboys receiver

FRISCO, Texas (AP) --- CeeDee Lamb says he and fellow Dallas Cowboys receiver
George Pickens were benched for the first series of a 33-16 victory at Las
Vegas because they were at a casino past curfew.
Lamb told reporters Thursday that he and Pickens had dinner and a few drinks at
the Red Rock Casino the night before the Monday night meeting with the Raiders.
The 2023 All-Pro made the comments to reporters at his locker after a larger
media session just outside the locker room at Cowboys headquarters. Pickens
also spoke to reporters outside the locker room, but didn't get into any
details of the benching by coach Brian Schottenheimer.
Lamb and Pickens entered the game on the second Dallas possession, and each
scored a touchdown. Pickens tied his career high with nine catches and had 144
yards receiving. It was the third 100-yard game of his first season with the
Cowboys following an offseason trade with Pittsburgh.
Lamb addressed the subject because he wanted to refute reports on social media
that he was seen throwing up at the casino.
