WRs Dobson, Thompkins ruled OUT for Patriots

Mike McCarthy moving away from running back by committee concept, declaring Rico Dowdle the No. 1 RB. “Rico needs to touch the ball,” he said.

This is great and all, but the Cooper Rush-led offense looked beyond miserable last week, and it's hard to see how it's going to get much better moving forward. Consider Dowdle a high-floor/low-ceiling RB3 in Week 11.

Jonathan Mingo is expected to make his debut for the Cowboys this week, per MM.

Mingo was inactive last week following the trade to allow time for ramping up.

We wouldn't expect a ton of action from Mingo fantasy-wise, but it's not as if he has a murderer's row of talent standing between himself and a WR2 role. He can be left on waiver wires in most every format, but might be worth checking to see if he ended up on waiver wires in Dynasty leagues.

Seahawks WR DK Metcalf was a full participant today in practice after missing two games with a knee injury. A sign that he'll be back on Sunday.

Great news for fantasy managers and the Seahawks offense, alike. Slot Metcalf in as a WR2, JSN as a WR3, and boost Geno Smith while you're at it.
