"Remarkable," Prescott said of Lamb, via the team’s website. "That's who CeeDee Lamb is. Tonight, what a great opportunity for him to have the game that he had – understanding that it was coming in this game with records on the line – and I wasn't aware about them until you guys told me, but I assured you he'd get that.
"The yards, yards after catch, getting open after the 2.3 [seconds], beating man coverage, getting into the right spots in zones, he can do it all."
Prescott added that it was "only the beginning."

"I told you I'd enjoy it more if we won.... It's a surreal moment for me," Lamb added. "Shout out to my guys, we continue to work, continue to build and continue to grow. I wouldn't be able to do any of this without them. We're looking forward to keeping it going."
