The Dallas Cowboys are sending another star to the Pro Bowl, and this one’s no stranger to the spotlight. Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has officially been added to the NFC roster as an alternate, marking his fifth consecutive Pro Bowl selection. That’s five straight years of elite production, consistency, and recognition-no small feat in a league where staying at the top is anything but easy.
Lamb joins a growing list of Cowboys heading to San Francisco for the NFL’s annual All-Star showcase. He’s the third alternate from Dallas to get the call, alongside tight end Jake Ferguson and return specialist KaVontae Turpin, who was added earlier this week. Turpin got in as a returner, but with Lamb now in the mix, the Cowboys’ receiving corps will be well represented.
With Lamb’s addition, Dallas now boasts eight Pro Bowlers this season-six of them on the offensive side of the ball. That group includes quarterback Dak Prescott, rookie kicker Brandon Aubrey, and offensive lineman Tyler Smith. Smith, notably, is the only offensive player among them who doesn’t play a skill position, which says a lot about the firepower Dallas brought to the field this year.
Here’s the full breakdown of Cowboys Pro Bowlers:
Original Selections:
- Dak Prescott (QB)
- George Pickens (WR)
- Tyler Smith (OL)
- Quinnen Williams (DL)
- Brandon Aubrey (K)
Alternates Added:
- Jake Ferguson (TE)
- KaVontae Turpin (Returner)
- CeeDee Lamb (WR)
While the Pro Bowl selection process has faced its share of scrutiny-especially when it comes to alternates-there’s no questioning Lamb’s place among the league’s best. He’s been the engine of the Cowboys’ passing game all season, a go-to target in critical moments, and a matchup nightmare for opposing secondaries.
And while some might point to the ever-evolving nature of the Pro Bowl format as a sign of inconsistency, the presence of eight Cowboys-particularly the offensive-heavy representation-speaks volumes about how dynamic this group has been. Whether it’s Prescott’s command under center, Ferguson’s rise at tight end, or Lamb’s continued dominance on the outside, Dallas’ offense has produced at a level that’s hard to ignore.
Lamb’s fifth Pro Bowl nod isn’t just another accolade-it’s a testament to his evolution into one of the league’s premier receivers. He’s not just making plays; he’s setting the standard. And now, he’ll get another chance to show that on a national stage, even if it’s in the more relaxed setting of Pro Bowl weekend.
For a team that came up short in the postseason, this level of recognition is a reminder of the talent on the roster-and a foundation to build on as they look ahead to next season.
