Are the Cowboys getting healthier at the right time?
The Dallas Cowboys are picking up their preparations for a Week 6 showdown with the Carolina Panthers as the NFL regular season rolls on.
During Thursday’s practice session that was open to the media, there was a positive sign regarding star receiver CeeDee Lamb.
Lamb has been recovering from a high-ankle sprain suffered in Week 3, which has kept him from taking the field for the Week 4 tie with the Green Bay Packers and the dominant Week 5 win over the New York Jets.
While he has missed the past two games, Lamb has been seen back on the practice field without a walking boot and has been ramping up his rehab work.

As of now, it appears Lamb is targeting the big division game against Washington for his return, as is Turpin. Jack Sanborn (concussion) is still not practicing, and the same is true of Miles Sanders (ankle/knee) and of course Tyler Booker (ankle) is still out. Dante Fowler missed practice with an illness.
The Klayton Adams hire was one of the best of the offseason.
FRISCO, Texas — Owners of the No. 1 offense in the entire NFL in most major categories, the Dallas Cowboys can thank several people for that being the case, from All-Pro Dak Prescott playing at an MVP level to head coach Brian Schottenheimer modernizing the playcalling as he initially promised to, but make sure you add offensive coordinator Klayton Adams to that list.
Adams joined the Cowboys as one of Schottenheimer’s first hires, and to much fanfare, considering he’s one of the most heralded offensive line coaches in the league, for the Arizona Cardinals, before being wooed away to Dallas.
