NFL Draft: CeeDee Lamb and his girlfriend react to viral cell phone moment

Lamb gave fans on Twitter a thumbs-down over all the wild speculation.

The Dallas Cowboys made one of the most well-received picks of the night in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, landing former Oklahoma superstar wide receiver CeeDee Lamb with the 17th overall pick.

Lamb was the top receiver on many analysts’ draft boards, but slipped slightly after Henry Ruggs III and Jerry Jeudy were selected 13th and 15th, respectively. Our Steven Ruiz gave the Cowboys an “A” grade on the pick, writing that while receiver wasn’t a position of need for Dallas, Lamb is poised to be a major threat in an already dangerous offense.

Lamb’s pick made plenty of noise on social media – and so did a live shot of his home draft party. Cameras cut to Lamb on the phone with someone, and his girlfriend Crymson Rose grabbed a second phone that received a call. Before she could answer, Lamb grabbed the phone back, and Twitter predictably went wild. In his first non-sponsored tweet as a Cowboy, Lamb asked fans to chill.

Rose later tweeted that Lamb’s agent was calling him, and she simply wanted to answer for Lamb. Case closed.
