Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. He sat out Thursday’s practice but returned to a limited workout on Friday. There have been no reports about Lamb being limited today, so we’d keep him in fantasy lineups.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (groin) is expected to play vs. the Rams this afternoon, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Lamb was sidelined on Thursday before returning to a limited practice on Friday. That adds some risk to his Week 5 fantasy profile, but there's still plenty of upside vs. a Rams defense that's struggled against the pass early this season.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Cowboys QB Dak Prescott is a "long shot" to return for the Week 6 game against the Eagles. Prescott would reportedly need to make "significant strides" early this week to have a chance to play in that game. The original return timeline from his thumb surgery was 4-6 weeks. Today marks 4 weeks since the initial injury. We'll keep watching for updates on Prescott's return. For now, expect Cooper Rush to remain the starter through at least Week 6.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (thumb) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Rams. He remained sidelined in practice all week, reportedly still having trouble gripping the football. We’ll see if Prescott can make it back for Week 6, which always seemed like the best-case scenario. QB Cooper Rush gets another start on Sunday.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb put in a limited practice Friday after sitting out Thursday with a groin issue. Jon Machota of The Athletic reports that Lamb had an MRI "to make sure it wasn't anything significant" and got "good results." Lamb is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, but Machota says he's expected to play. Plan on using Lamb in your fantasy football lineups, but try to secure an insurance option in case he turns up inactive.
Cowboys WR Ceedee Lamb sat out Thursday's practice with a groin issue, but it doesn't sound like he's in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Rams. "I'm fine. I'm good. I don't want to scare nobody," he said, per Yahoo's Jori Epstein. We'll watch for his Friday status.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted Tuesday that QB Dak Prescott (thumb) still can't grip the football well enough to play. That sure doesn't sound like a guy who will be ready to start an NFL game on Sunday. Look for QB Cooper Rush to be under center again vs. the Rams. We'll see if Prescott can make it back for Week 6
Texans WR Brandin Cooks caught all 7 targets for 57 yards and a score in Sunday's loss to the Chargers. It was nice fantasy efficiency after an erratic start to the season. He'll get a potentially challenging matchup with the Jaguars before a Week 6 bye.
Cowboys WR Ceedee Lamb led the team in targets (8), receptions (6) and yards (97) and caught 1 of Cooper Rush's 2 TD passes in Sunday's win over the Commanders. That marked a 29.6% share of Rush's total pass attempts. WR Noah Brown (6) was the only other Cowboy to see more than 3 targets. He caught 3 balls for 61 yards before leaving with a neck injury. WR Michael Gallup made his season debut -- coming off the ACL tear at the end of last year -- and posted a 2-24-1 line on 3 targets. TE Dalton Schultz played through the knee issue that cost him Week 3 and caught none of his 3 targets.
Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott tallied 81 scoreless yards in Sunday's win over the Commanders. He took 19 carries for 49 yards (2.6 per rush) and caught both of his targets for 32 yards. Nearly all of that (31) came on a single play. The 21 opportunities, however, marked Elliott's largest total and greatest share of his split with Tony Pollard through 4 games. Elliott garnered 65.6% of their combined opportunities (carries + targets) against Washington. That followed shares of 60%, 54.8% and 53.3% the first 3 weeks. We'll how that work split proceeds. Pollard managed only 6 rushing yards on 8 carries against Washington and 2 yards on his lone catch among 3 targets. He's not usable in most fantasy football formats right now.
Cowboys S Jayron Kearse (knee) is inactive for the 3rd straight game. That leaves Donovan Wilson as a strong starter against a pass-leaning Washington offense that arrives as an underdog.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Cowboys QB Dak Prescott is "eyeing" next week's game against the Rams for a "possible" return from his thumb injury. We'll certainly be tracking the QB's status throughout the week. The combo of surgery on his throwing thumb and a good defense on the other side of that matchup would have us wary of playing Prescott in fantasy football lineups right away.
Cowboys S Jayron Kearse is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders. He missed the past 2 games with a knee sprain but returned to practice this week. If Kearse can't go, then S Donovan Wilson becomes an IDP lineup consideration in his place.
Cowboys S Jayron Kearse has put in 2 straight limited practices this week, his 1st action since spraining his left MCL in the opener. If Kearse is ready to return to the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Washington, it would likely mean a large decrease in playing time for S Donovan Wilson. We'll see about Kearse's game status after Friday's workout.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott had the stitches removed from his surgically repaired thumb but still has swelling, HC Mike McCarthy said Tuesday. Once that subsides, Prescott will need to regain strength in the thumb. Then he can resume throwing. “I do not have a timeline for when he will start throwing," McCarthy admitted. Prescott and the team have been overly optimistic about his return timeline recently. We still think Week 6 is his earliest possible return.
Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb tallied 8 grabs for 87 yards and 1 score in a Week 3 win over the Giants. His 12 targets easily led the team and represented a 38.7% share from Cooper Rush. He dropped an easy downfield ball before halftime, but fantasy owners can’t really complain about his production. The young WR has now tallied lines of 6-112 (2021), 7-75 and 8-87-1 in 3 starts with Rush. Dak Prescott (thumb) might only be a couple of weeks away from returning, and Lamb will clearly remain a fantasy starter in the meantime. Next up is a divisional tilt with Washington.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott told ESPN's Lisa Salters that he expects to be back from his thumb injury in a couple of weeks. He intimated that could be as soon as Week 4 against Washington. We'd bet on Week 5 actually being the earliest. Prescott did get stitches removed from the injured hand Monday, though. ESPN's Todd Archer reports that the QB's grip strength will play a big part in determining when he can get back into the lineup. We'll keep watching Prescott's progress.
Cowboys whirlwind Micah Parsons is active for tonight's game against the Giants. He entered the day questionable because of an illness but should be in any IDP lineups where possible.
Vikings LB Eric Kendricks (toe) is active for today's game against the Lions. Use him as planned in IDP lineups.
Cowboys multi-use weapon Micah Parsons is questionable for Monday night’s game against the Giants because of an illness. He missed the 1st days of practice but returned for limited participation Saturday. Parsons is worth waiting for if you can secure an insurance option. LBs Leighton Vander Esch and Tae Crowder stand as the top 2 replacements for IDP lineups
