Dallas Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb, Damontae Kazee, Carlos Watkins coming off reserve/COVID list, source says

FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys are activating wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, safety Damontae Kazee and defensive tackle Carlos Watkins from the reserve/COVID list, a source told ESPN on Thursday.

Watkins was sent home before the Cowboys' third preseason game against the Houston Texans on Aug. 21, while Lamb and Hooker were placed on the reserve list Aug. 24. For a vaccinated player to return to a team's facility, he must have two straight negative tests separated by 24 hours.

Guard Connor Williams and wide receiver Noah Brown remain on the COVID list ahead of the Cowboys' opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next Thursday.
