Dru Phillips just caught wind of these comments from Lamb after coming off the practice field. He wasn't interested in a war of words.
"It don't change shit," Phillips told me. "It don't change nothing about my preparation or how I'm going to the game. It's just football, man. It happens."
Phillips said they just ran into each other on a pick play and Lamb got hurt. Lamb lines up in the slot a lot, so they'll see each other plenty on Sunday.
"It's fun," Phillips said. "Good matchup. Look forward to these type of things so it'll be fun."
Scary: Cowboys star WR CeeDee Lamb says he’s “got something” coming for Giants’ CB Dru Phillips, who injured him last year.
“He tackled me and hurt me, so I’ve got something for him. For sure.”

DL coach Andre Patterson on the adjustment to the NFL for defensive tackles: "In 90 percent of the games they played, they were better than every offensive lineman they lined up against because most of those guys are selling insurance or are teachers. Now, they're going against grown-ass men that are real.
"So you've got to learn you can't pop up and just give a guy your chest because you're better and stronger than him that you got away with in college. You can't do that in this league. Well, you tell them that. They've got to go out there and experience it. Then when a guy grabs them on their chest and they can't get off, then it's like, 'OK, I better start listening to what coach is telling me to do.'"
