Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott did not travel with the team to Atlanta and won't play vs. the Falcons on Sunday. Zeke is out for disciplinary reasons, according to multiple reports. His absence could mean an expanded role for RB Rico Dowdle. Or RB Dalvin Cook could soak up Elliott's snaps and touches. Dowdle remains the only viable fantasy play in this backfield. His ceiling is a bit higher now than it was a few hours ago.
Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle is not listed on the Week 9 injury report. He was a late scratch on Sunday night due to an illness but will be back for this weekend's game vs. the Falcons. Neither RB Ezekiel Elliott nor RB Dalvin Cook was very impressive in the loss to the 49ers, so we're expecting Dowdle to return as Dallas' lead back.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero talked up RB Dalvin Cook ahead of the veteran's first game with the Cowboys on Sunday night against the 49ers. Someone must have forgotten to tell Cook or the team how good he had looked in practice, though. Cook carried six times for just 12 yards and added a 10-yard catch on his lone target. He trailed RB Ezekiel Elliott in carries, yards, and yards per rush, and watched Elliott claim the team's only rushing TD.
Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle (illness) will be inactive for tonight's game vs. the 49ers, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. That'll leave the backfield to Dalvin Cook, Ezekiel Elliott, and Hunter Luepke. Cook is the best fantasy bet if you were planning to start Dowdle, but it's a backfield to avoid if possible.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle "became sick upon arriving" at the stadium for tonight's game and is now questionable.
The Cowboys plan to elevate RB Dalvin Cook from the practice squad, putting him in line to play vs. the 49ers on Sunday night, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports. Cook was one of the least effective runners in the league last season, averaging 3.2 yards per carry and ranking dead last among 62 qualifiers in Pro Football Focus rushing grade. So we're not banking on him emerging as a fantasy asset in Dallas. We'll see how big a role he plays in his Cowboys debut. Cook adds a little more risk to RB Rico Dowdle's Week 8 fantasy profile.
