Cowboys LB Micah Parsons tested positive for COVID Wednesday. The Saturday night kickoff would seem to make it difficult for him to make it back, but we're not yet seeing Parsons reported as being out for the game. If he does miss the regular-season finale, then LBs Leighton Vander Esch and Keanu Neal should see playing-time boosts. Vander Esch would be our preferred IDP play.
Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy said Monday that his team will play its starters in Saturday night's regular-season finale at Philadelphia. "We're going to line up to do what we need to do to win the game," McCarthy told reporters, according to The Athletic's Jon Machota. We wouldn't be shocked if RB Ezekiel Elliott gets the night off to rest his knee, or if the Eagles decide to rest starters and thus present a light challenge. For now, though, you should assume that any active Cowboys on your fantasy football roster will be going in Week 18.
The Cowboys have designated DE Randy Gregory -- and DT Neville Gallimore (elbow) -- to return from IR. Executive VP Stephen Jones says "unless there is a setback," both players are expected to play Sunday against Washington, according to Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News. Gregory has been out since suffering a calf injury in practice ahead of Week 10. He'll be an upside DL option for IDP lineups if he's ready for Week 14, though.
The Cowboys have designated DE Demarcus Lawrence to return from IR, and Jon Machota of The Athletic reports that he's expected to play Thursday night against the Saints. Lawrence has been out fracturing his left foot in practice leading up to Week 2. We'd hold him out of IDP lineups until seeing at least a game back from the veteran. The Cowboys will not get DE Randy Gregory back for Thursday night's game. He's on IR with a calf injury. We'll see about his Week 14 chances.
Cowboys DE Randy Gregory suffered a calf injury in Wednesday's practice that is expected to cost him multiple games, ESPN's Todd Archer reports. HC Mike McCarthy said IR is a possibility. The injury likely means we'll see rookie LB Micah Parsons play more DE while Gregory is out.
Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs (ankle) and DE Randy Gregory (knee) are active for today’s game against the Patriots. S Damontae Kazee (hip) and S Donovan Wilson (groin) are also active. We’d still bet on Jayron Kearse keeping the starting gig that once belonged to Wilson
The Cowboys expect CB Trevon Diggs to play through the questionable tag for his sprained ankle today against the Patriots, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports. An active Diggs should probably be in IDP lineups. We'll confirm his status when the late-game inactives come out. Other questionable Dallas defenders: DE Randy Gregory (knee), S Damontae Kazee (hip) and S Donovan Wilson (groin).
The Cowboys expect DE Randy Gregory (knee) to play today against the Patriots. He's officially questionable, so we'll update his status when inactives come out around 3 p.m. ET.
Cowboys DE Randy Gregory is active for today's game against the Giants. He entered questionable, but HC Mike McCarthy indicated Friday that he expected Gregory to play.
Cowboys DE Randy Gregory is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants with a knee injury. HC Mike McCarthy expressed "no concern" about his availability, though, according to Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News.
Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs left Sunday's win over the Panthers. NFL.com reports he was merely dealing with back tightness, which doesn't sound like a serious issue. We'll see about his status or the Week 5 clash with the Giants.
Cowboys DE Randy Gregory (knee) is active for today's game against the Panthers. He's not a high-end IDP option but is available if he was in your plans.
Cowboys S Donovan Wilson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers. It'll be his 3rd straight game missed with the groin injury. Fill-in Jayron Kearse sits 23rd among 131 safeties in Pro Football Focus grade and might not cede the job back to Wilson when Wilson is healthy again. DE Randy Gregory is questionable with a knee injury. He popped up on the injury report after missing practice Thursday, then put in a limited Friday workout.
Cowboys S Donovan Wilson (groin) is doubtful for Monday night's game against the Eagles. That leaves Jayron Kearse to start in his place again. There's some upside to Kearse for deeper IDP leagues.
Cowboys S Damontae Kazee (thigh) is active for today’s game against the Chargers.
The Cowboys have downgraded S Donovan Wilson to out for today's game against the Chargers. He did not travel with the team because of the groin injury that originally rendered him questionable. Malik Hooker is expected to make his Dallas debut and play in Wilson's place. Damontee Kazee is the better bet for IDP production but brings his own risk. Kazee is questionable with his own thigh injury.
