The John Caldwellhits kept coming for the Dallas Cowboys against the Atlanta Falcons.

After quarterback Dak Prescott left Sunday's game with a hamstring injury and was later ruled out, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb exited with a shoulder injury.

Lamb left in the fourth quarter after backup quarterback Cooper Rush targeted him in the end zone on a third-and-11 play. He remained on the ground for a moment before getting up and grabbing his right shoulder.

He returned to the game, however, and caught a pass from Rush for a two-point conversion with 1:28 remaining.

Lamb is set to undergo an MRI on Monday, but he said after the game he plans to play in next week's key NFC East contest against the Philadelphia Eagles. ESPN's Todd Archer reported that Lamb was dealing with an AC joint issue.

The All-Pro selection had eight catches for 47 yards on 12 targets in the 27-21 loss.

In August, Lamb signed a four-year, $136 million contract extension that put him behind only the Minnesota Vikings' Justin Jefferson in annual average salary among wide receivers.
