Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle rushed 12 times for 75 yards in Sunday's loss to Atlanta. He delivered in the passing game, catching 5 of 6 targets for 32 yards and 1 score.

Dallas made Zeke Elliott a healthy scratch, helping Dowdle reach 17 touches. Dalvin Cook mixed in for only 2 carries (0 targets).

Dowdle’s score came on a scramble drill where he broke free in the end zone. That marked his third TD catch over his past four outings.

Note: Dak Prescott left Sunday’s game with a hamstring injury and didn’t return. If he’s out for Week 10 vs. Philly, it’ll take some shine off Dowdle’s fantasy upside. The Eagles also represent a negative matchup, per our strength of schedule tool.
