Jason Garrett: RBs Alfred Morris, Darren McFadden, Rod Smith to all be involved

Nov 10, 2017

According to Helman's tweet, the trio of Morris, McFadden, and Smith will all be involved in the Cowboys' run game in the absence of the suspended Ezekiel Elliott. However, there is no specific breakdown of how the workload will be split between the three.

Fantasy Impact:

We kind of expected this, as there has been talk of all three backs being involved in the run game. We most likely won't get any clarity on the situation until we see the Cowboys play a game without Elliott, but look to Morris to handle early-down work, while McFadden is involved in passing downs. Smith is the wildcard here.

We have Morris ranked the highest of the three Cowboys backs this week (No. 17 RB in standard leagues, No. 25 RB in PPR leagues).

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.
