The Cowboys added injury to insult on Sunday, with quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb injured in a 27-21 loss to the Falcons.

Prescott was sidelined with a right hamstring injury and did not play in the fourth quarter. He also injured his right hand. Lamb suffered a right shoulder injury and winced on every play after a hit by Falcons safety Jessie Bates in the first half drove Lamb's shoulder into the ground.

Lamb caught a two-point conversion from Cooper Rush with 1:28 left to cut the Cowboys' deficit to six points, but Kyle Pitts recovered the onside kick to give Atlanta the deficit.

The Falcons improved to 6-3, while the Cowboys fell to 3-5 with their third straight loss.

Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins ​​completed 19 of 24 passes for 222 yards and three touchdowns. He threw a 9-yard score to Drake London before the receiver left with a hip injury, a 36-yard score to Darnell Mooney and an 11-yard score to RayRay McCloud.

Mooney caught five passes for 88 yards and Bijan Robinson caught seven passes for 59 yards and ran for 86 yards on 19 carries.

Prescott was 18 of 24 for 133 yards and a touchdown and rushing was 13 of 25 for 115 yards and a touchdown. The Cowboys had a season-high 137 rushing yards while Ezekiel Elliott stayed home: Rico Dowdle ran for 75 yards on 12 carries and Prescott had three for 30 yards.
