We’re halfway through the fantasy football season, and it looks as though the preseason’s projected flex value for Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle has finally come to fruition. He’s had a consistently safe floor in most of the 2024 season, with 10+ touches in every game dating back to Week 2 and a touchdown in three of his last four games.
One key element of his usage that fantasy managers should be hopeful to see in the near future is his role in the passing game. Dowdle has had six targets, five catches and at least 30 receiving yards in each of the past two games. That usage could be as important as ever this week following a shoulder injury to CeeDee Lamb (even despite the blockbuster acquisition of Jonathan Mingo) and a hamstring injury that could land starting QB Dak Prescott on injured reserve. Will he maintain that role as a safety valve with backup Cooper Rush under center?
