CeeDee Lamb has grown sick and tired of people taking shots at his quarterback.
The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver came to the defense of Dak Prescott while stating that nobody deserves the criticism that he gets for the team’s failures on the field.
“I don’t think anyone deserves the criticism he gets. They are crazy, bro,” Lamb said on PFT Live. “You’ve got to understand. It’s football. A lot of other people get paid to make plays. But the way that he gets talked about is crazy. It’s wild. I don’t think he deserves it.”
Despite missing multiple games due to injury, Prescott threw a league-leading 15 interceptions through 12 regular-season games in 2022. He shut up a lot of haters with his performance in the Wild card round against the Bucs. However, he returned to form when he tossed two interceptions in an ugly loss to the 49ers in the divisional round.
“Just seeing how the media reacts to Dak is one of the funniest moments quite honestly,” Lamb added. “I don’t say much, but I see a lot. I’ll watch how he plays. Of course, I’m there, but I go look at the media and everybody’s ‘Dak this; Dak that’ after a good game. It be crazy. And the next week I’ll see the same names. It’s a little weird to me.”
Lamb praised his quarterback’s ability to tune out the noise.

“You can’t think about last week. Focus on the now. Be where your feet are,” Lamb said. “He’s a big advocate of that, and I’ve learned so much about letting the past be the past and living in the present. I’ve learned so much from him just how he’s performed this year. He’ll throw two picks here and the next game he’ll give you four touchdowns. It’s crazy, bro.”
Next season is huge for Prescott if he wants to continue playing for the Cowboys.
