CeeDee Lamb dismissed any tension with Dak Prescott following some uncomfortable moments Sunday.
The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver was visibly frustrated during a 28-25 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Lamb had a heated sideline encounter with Prescott during a game in which he caught four of seven targets for 67 yards.
On Tuesday, Lamb insisted he and Prescott are all good after the exchange.
"Our relationship has, if anything, gotten stronger," Lamb told reporters, via WFAA's Mike Leslie. "Don't let what's out there fool you. We're brothers to the end. We know that we all we got, and I tip my hat off to him. I got the utmost respect for him."
Lamb added that their bond allows them to "make up in the end" after letting out passion during the game. He said he was mostly frustrated with himself and felt he "failed the team."

The 25-year-old also regretted his off-field behavior on Sunday.
"I know that's not the player I am," Lamb said, per The Athletic's Jon Machota. "I know that's not the teammate I am. … It was a bad game on my end. I fully take accountability in that. I will be better in the future. And it's gonna be fine."
On Sunday, Prescott told reporters he's less concerned about reading Lamb's body language than "making sure he doesn't get down on himself."
"For me, it's about just letting him know, 'Next play, wipe it clean.'" Prescott said. "Who cares what happened when you have an opportunity to go fix it this next play or make a better play? So if you're sitting in that, dwelling on that, your mind's not in the right place to move forward."
The Cowboys will look to avoid a three-game losing streak when facing the New York Giants this Thursday night.
