Jerry Jones told Star-Telegram that he does not think his team is in a difficult situation. The departure of Amari Cooper and Cedrick Wilson has not made the team weak.

Along with Jerry Jones, Coach McCarthy also praises WR CeeDee Lamb
Recently, Cowboys coach McCarthy gave a remark on CeeDee Lamb and said, “This is a great opportunity for him personally. I think just the way we’ve established the offense, particularly in the passing game, the ability for those guys to play different positions, to create matchups and make it harder on the defense to double you and those types of things — my point is, playing in the slot a lot last year and now playing the flanker position.”
