Cowboys give revered No. 88 to rookie receiver CeeDee Lamb

With a nod to history, Dallas Cowboys first-round draft pick CeeDee Lamb will wear No. 88.

Lamb's number choice was up for debate since the Cowboys selected him, and he told 105.3 The Fan on draft night that he would wear No. 10 in Dallas after wearing No. 2 with the Oklahoma Sooners.

According to the NFL Pro Shop, however, fans can purchase Lamb's No. 88 Cowboys jersey.

The Cowboys are hoping Lamb can track along the same lines as some of the previous 88s -- Drew Pearson, Michael Irvin and Dez Bryant.
