3 calls this week, and it never changed. Each lead time is the one that call actually had when it was written — never recounted from now. A call that changes is the record working: new evidence arrived and we said so, in public, before the game.
The team has not published one we can date, or the window has not reached it. Not the same as his having practised.
PFT's Tuesday report has Lamb (thigh) as a full participant for a second straight day and explicitly frames that as being on track to play in Thursday's game against the Bucs — the game in question (P2). The thigh is current, from Sunday's win over Houston, but it is not limiting him, and he carries no designation while teammates are listed as non-participants or limited (P2). He is a heavily involved starter in the passing game with no contrary signal (P1).
