Cowboys WR Tavon Austin (groin) to miss time

Oct 16, 2018

Tavon Austin isn't expected to play Sunday at Washington. The veteran wide receiver might be out for a while.

During his weekly radio appearance Tuesday morning, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the groin injury Austin suffered in the third quarter on Sunday is similar to the injury former Cowboys cornerback Morris Claiborne had during the 2016 season.

Claiborne ended up missing nine games.

Fantasy Impact:

Austin had his right groin heavily wrapped as he congratulated players entering the locker room after Sunday's game. Austin has seven catches for 130 yards and two touchdowns to go along with six carries for 55 yards this season. Austin has also been Dallas' primary punt returner, returning 10 for 58 yards.

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.
