CeeDee Lamb is under tremendous pressure to be a successful WR1 this season.
Dak Prescott is the Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback and believes he can live up to these expectations.
Dak is certain Lamb will be mentioned in a similar echelon to Cooper Kupp or Davante Adams when the season ends.
“Expect him to go and be mentioned as one of those names when this season’s done,” Prescott said, per Cowboys Country. “He’ll go out there and just prove that. He’s been preparing to do that.”

Amari Cooper and Lamb shared the lion’s share in targets this season. Amari caught 79 passes for 1,102 yards, and Lamb scored six touchdowns. Cooper is now in Cleveland so the third-year wideout could boost those numbers.
The Cowboys’ wide receiver depth chart has been plagued by injury problems to begin the 2022 season. This puts Lamb under more pressure to produce.
On Sunday, Dallas will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to kick off its 2022 season.
