Report: Dallas QB Tony Romo could be back Week 8

Oct 03, 2016

According reports from ESPN and NFL Network, the Cowboys are targeting Week 8 for Tony Romo's return to the lineup.

Of course, rookie fourth-rounder Dak Prescott has exceeded every expectation imaginable, not only leading the Cowboys to a 3-1 start, but he's done it while completing 68 percent of his passes without a single turnover.

Fantasy Impact:

But Prescott's emergence doesn't change the Romo timetable, at least as far as owner and general manager Jerry Jones is concerned, the story said. Jones maintains that Romo gives the team the best chance to win, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen's latest report.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
