LAS VEGAS — Cowboys starting wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens didn’t start in Monday’s game against the Raiders because of a disciplinary matter.
A team official labeled the absence of the players as a “coach’s decision, they missed some things.”
No further information was provided.
Lamb missed the first three snaps of the game and Pickens the first four before returning for the second series.

Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby forced quarterback Dak Prescott to fumble on a strip sack. Prescott was looking for Lamb on the play before he was sacked.
Pickens picked up his first catch of the game, a 12-yard gain, on the third possession. Lamb later added an 18-yard touchdown in the second quarter.
