Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back, foot) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.
Huddle Up: Lamb likely will be able to play this week, but fantasy players can check on his status later in the week. He continues to be the main option in the passing game for the Cowboys and should be a starting option in all leagues.

Dallas Cowboys WR Brandin Cooks (knee) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.
Huddle Up: Cooks is working his way back from injury, so it is not known if he will be available to play in Week 12. He will see a few targets if he is cleared to play but can be avoided in most fantasy leagues.

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (concussion) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.
Huddle Up: Ferguson has a few days to recover but is not expected to play in the Week 12 game. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation but should look for other options to use in their lineups.

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (concussion) will be "hard-pressed" to suit up for Week 12 against the Washington Commanders after sustaining a concussion in Week 11.
Huddle Up: One of the few bright spots of the Cowboys' embarrassing Monday night loss to the Houston Texans was the involvement of backup tight ends Luke Schoonmaker and Brevyn Spann-Ford. Schoonmaker filled in capably for Ferguson in Week 2 as well and has a shot to push for top 12 numbers at tight end in Week 12 if Ferguson is ruled out as expected.
Posted 11/19/2024 6:15 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys TE Luke Schoonmaker rolled up six receptions for 56 yards on 10 targets in Week 11 against the Houston Texans.
Huddle Up: Schoonmaker posted some impressive numbers, as he was thrust into action once Jake Ferguson left the game in the first half due to a concussion. If Schoonmaker is forced to start in Week 12 at Washington, he could have some TE2 fantasy appeal in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams.

Dallas Cowboys WR KaVontae Turpin ended up with three receptions for a career-high 86 yards, including a 64-yard catch and run for touchdown, in Week 11 against the Houston Texans. He was targeted three times. Turpin also had 56 yards on a pair of kickoff returns.
Huddle Up: Turpin has tremendous speed, but he has just seven catches and 15 targets in the past four games. The touchdown in the first half marked a career-long gain from scrimmage, too. He could get some more looks down the stretch, but right now he is seeing enough targets to only consider using him in deeper fantasy leagues heading into Week 12.

Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb ended up with game highs of eight receptions, 93 yards and 12 targets in Week 11 against the Houston Texans, while running once for 13 yards.
Huddle Up: The fact Lamb was able to flirt with the century mark with Cooper Rush under center is impressive. He was used frequently, and proved he remains a fantasy stud despite a huge downgrade in quarterback play from Dak Prescott to Rush. The Cowboys travel to meet the Washington Commanders in Week 12.

Dallas Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott rushed just once for eight yards in Week 11 against the Houston Texans, while adding three receptions for 16 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: How the mighty have fallen. Elliott's previous career low in a single game was three carries in Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens, and he has hit double-digit carries just twice this season. He has fallen behind Rico Dowdle on the depth chart, and even Deuce Vaughn out-touched him on MNF. Zeke can longer be trusted outside of the very deepest of fantasy leagues at this juncture.
Posted 11/19/2024 5:55 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle registered 10 carries for a team-high 28 yards in Week 11 against the Houston Texans, and he added two receptions for six yards on five targets.
Huddle Up: The game got out of hand in the second half, and the team had more of a pass-heavy game plan the rest of the way. Dowdle remains more of a RB3 or flex fantasy play in leagues of 12 or more teams heading into Week 12 in Washington.
Posted 11/19/2024 5:45 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush completed 32-of-55 passes for a career-high 354 yards, one touchdowns and one interception in Week 11 against the Houston Texans, while running twice for two yards.
Huddle Up: It was the second career 300-yard passing effort for Rush, with his first being a start in Minnesota on Oct. 31, 2021 in his first NFL start. Despite the solid yardage total, he isn't someone you're going to want to rely upon outside of deeper fantasy leagues using two starting signal callers. The Cowboys travel to meet the Washington Commanders in Week 12.
Posted 11/19/2024 2:00 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (concussion) suffered a concussion during the Week 11 game and has been ruled out.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see when Ferguson will be able to play again. Luke Schoonmaker probably will be the main tight end for the Cowboys while Ferguson is sidelined but can be avoided in most leagues.
Posted 11/18/2024 5:35 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back) is expected to play in Week 11, per source on Monday, Nov. 18.
Huddle Up: Lamb is on shakier ground than normal with Dak Prescott sidelined and Cooper Rush starting. That said, he remains a WR1 until further notice.
Posted 11/17/2024 5:51 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (back) is expected to play in the Week 11 game as long as he does not suffer a setback.
Huddle Up: Lamb was a late addition to the injury report, so fantasy players should check the inactive list for his official status. He should see a good amount of targets and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (illness) practiced in full for the second straight day on Saturday, Nov. 16, and was removed from the Week 11 injury report.
Huddle Up: Ferguson's production has been inconsistent, and that doesn't figure to get any better with Cooper Rush. That said, Ferguson remains a TE2 and a starting option with the poor overall state of the position this season.
Posted 11/16/2024 9:42 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush (neck) practiced in full for the third consecutive day on Saturday, Nov. 16, and carries no designation for Week 11.
Huddle Up: Rush has taken the reins of the Cowboys' offense with Dak Prescott expected to miss the rest of the season. However, he hasn't come close to garnering consideration as a starter.
Posted 11/15/2024 10:10 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (illness) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 15.
Huddle Up: Ferguson has received at least five targets in all but one game this season but only posted 25 yards during the Week 10 game. He should see a decent amount of targets against the Houston Texans and could be a possible low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper leagues.
Posted 11/15/2024 10:04 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush (neck) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 15.
Huddle Up: Rush likely will have more success this week than he did in Week 10 but should not be a starting option in any fantasy leagues at this time.
Posted 11/14/2024 9:59 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush (neck) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 14.
Huddle Up: Rush appears to be dealing with a minor injury and is on track to receive another start in Week 11. He did not have much success last week and should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/14/2024 9:56 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Nov. 14.
Huddle Up: Ferguson probably will be able to return to practice later in the week, but fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation. He will see a few targets if he plays and could be a low-end No. 1 tight end in some deeper leagues.

Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle is "the lead back," according to head coach Mike McCarthy. Per McCarthy, it will be his "focus to continue to get (Dowdle) opportunities" for the rest of the season.
Huddle Up: While this is a great thing for Dowdle's fantasy stock in theory, it comes on an offense that is a shell of its former self. The offensive line is struggling and Dak Prescott will not be around to make defenses pay for crowding the line of scrimmage. Fantasy managers should expect to see a lot of empty-calorie 15-touch games from Dowdle in the near future, starting in Week 11 against a hard-nosed Houston Texans run defense. Do not expect Dowdle to be much more than a low-end RB2 the rest of the way.
Posted 11/12/2024 2:24 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (hamstring) will undergo surgery Wednesday, Nov. 13, on the partial avulsion of his hamstring, and he will miss the rest of the season.
Huddle Up: Cooper Rush or Trey Lance could take over, but neither provides as much upside as a healthy Prescott. Lance could get the nod so the team can see what they have in the former No. 2 overall pick. Both are QB2s in fantasy.
Posted 11/11/2024 9:36 pm GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush will be the starting quarterback for the Cowboys in Week 11, according to head coach Mike McCarthy.
Huddle Up: Rush threw for only 45 yards in Week 10 even though he completed 13 passes during the game. He likely will have more success in Week 11 but should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/11/2024 7:48 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys WR Jalen Tolbert caught three passes (on five targets) for 14 yards during the club's Week 10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Huddle Up: Tolbert had cobbled together fringe fantasy value filling in for Brandin Cooks, who is on IR, but the loss of Dak Prescott could bring a swift end to that. While you never want to overreact to one game -- in Cooper Rush's previous run as a starter he was mostly solid outside of a rough showing versus these same Eagles -- it feels like an uphill battle for Tolbert to deliver going forward.
Posted 11/11/2024 7:36 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott ran the ball six times for 22 yards in a Week 10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Elliott also fumbled once with the Eagles recovering the ball in the end zone for a touchback to end Dallas' best drive of the day.
Huddle Up: Back after a one-game suspension, Elliott had a brutal fumble that ended a long drive when the game was still competitive -- the Eagles led, 7-3, when Elliott fumbled at the goal line. Given where Dallas is, you wonder if Elliott makes it to the end of the season with the club, especially if the losses keep piling up. He has marginal fantasy value at this point.
Posted 11/11/2024 3:14 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys QB Trey Lance replaced QB Cooper Rush during a 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10, completing four of his six passes for 21 yards and an interception. He also rushed three times for 17 yards.
Huddle Up: It remains to be seen if the Cowboys will turn to Lance with the playoffs likely out of reach, but even if he does start, he doesn't need to be rostered in fantasy leagues.
Posted 11/11/2024 3:08 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle rushed 12 times for 53 yards and caught three passes for three yards in a 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10.
Huddle Up: Dowdle has logged at least 15 touches in three of the last four games, and he has topped 100 yards from scrimmage twice in that span. His production will likely slip a bit with Dak Prescott sidelined, but Dowdle will still have some flex potential with his current workload.
Posted 11/11/2024 3:04 am GMT
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson finished with four catches on five targets for a team-high 24 yards in a 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10. He also lost a fumble.
Huddle Up: Ferguson led the Dallas passing attack with a pedestrian 24 yards, and with Dak Prescott sidelined, there could be some lean weeks on tap for Ferguson. Fantasy owners should have a backup plan in mind.
