From the article

CeeDee Lamb tried to gut through an injury on Thursday night after suffering a quadriceps contusion late in the game. Lamb returned to action multiple times but struggled to stay on the field, which makes sense considering quadriceps contusions can be extremely painful and make running difficult. Historically, we've seen players miss time with quadriceps contusions, although absences are typically short, often no more than two weeks. The good news for Lamb is that playing on Thursday gives him a few extra days to recover. I suspect the 10 days between games could be enough for Lamb to suit up in Week 6.

STACKED’s take

NeutralInjury

Quad contusion projected for Week 6 return with 10 days to recover.

Suffered a quadriceps contusion late in Thursday's game and struggled to stay on the field; historically, quadriceps contusions result in short absences typically no more than two weeks. The source projects Lamb to return in Week 6, noting that the 10 days between Thursday and the next game should provide enough recovery time. The source advises not to panic if Lamb misses practice or is limited early in the week, as Dallas may simply be giving the injury additional time to heal.
