Why CeeDee Lamb Says Schottenheimer’s Penalty Had Deep Meaning for the Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys' athletes challenged Brian Schottenheimer's tolerance on Wednesday.
After warning his team in the initial week of summer training, the The Dallas Cowboys' head coach removed a player from the team. The coach of the Cowboys expelled one of his players. The leader of the Cowboy squad forced a player to leave. For delivering a punch (newcomer offensive lineman Ajani Cornelius), and then ended practice early as the conflict persisted. Rather than proceeding with team exercises, he made his players complete sprints.
Want to battle? Let's (expletive) battle," Schottenheimer shouted to the players. "Move your butt to the bench.
It’s typical in college, high school, and lower-level football to have players perform sprints as a disciplinary measure. However, in the NFL—where practice sessions are tightly controlled with coaches carefully planning every repetition—and where the lowest-paid athletes earn at least $840,000—it’s uncommon.
"Long time no see," Lamb said. told reporters When questioned about the most recent instance when he was involved in a practice that ended early.
Nevertheless, Lamb supports Schottenheimer's choice and outlined the reasons behind its significance.
I think that was truly essential," Lamb said. "To be honest, I appreciate what (Schottenheimer) is bringing in since we require structure. We must stay balanced. We should maintain access to the team along with intensity simultaneously. Get angry and compete during the plays, but once the whistle sounds, it's back to business—'Okay, let's set up again. See you on the next snap.' That sort of enthusiasm is exactly what we need—not just 'We're going to accomplish this right here, right now,' regardless of circumstances. So credit where it's due to Schotty for that. For ourselves, all we can do is strive to be the top unit possible.
When the Pro Bowl wide receiver mentions that the team requires discipline, he does so based on his own experiences. In support of Lamb's argument, between 2021 and 2024, the Cowboys consistently finished with fewer than six penalties, ranking first in the league on two occasions, including last season. per NFLpenalties.com .
For Schottenheimer, this presents a significant chance for growth as he takes over from Mike McCarthy in the role of head coach. He is ensuring that his team recognizes the significance of doing things correctly.
Would you like to become champions?" asked Lamb when questioned about the PG-friendly version of Schottenheimer's message to the team. "Throughout the time we've been here, having talent has never been an issue. The real challenge has always been discipline. How can we move forward without falling back? Do you understand what I mean? How can we prevent making mistakes that hurt us? How can we ensure we aren’t undermining ourselves—particularly when things are going well for us?
The Cowboys have another training session scheduled for Thursday at 11:45 a.m. PT. Hopefully, this round they'll manage to finish successfully.
