Lamb, 25, has been battling a right shoulder injury for weeks.

According to the team, additional exams and scans on Lamb's shoulder this week determined "his injury has now progressed to a point that he will be listed as 'out' for the remaining two games of the season."

The team said Lamb, who isn't expected to need surgery, will receive treatment and rehab on his shoulder. He is expected to make a full recovery.

The Cowboys are playing at noon on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
