Tony Romo, Dez Bryant practice

Sep 24, 2011

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo (fractured rib) and receiver Dez Bryant (thigh) practiced with the team on Saturday for the first time all week and appear set to give it a go Monday against the Redskins.

Dallas head coach Jason Garrett termed all his injured players day-to-day and they would continue be evaluated.

But watching Romo practice with his teammates and throwing passes to receivers - albeit on a limited basis - is good news for the Cowboys.

The question with him is how much pain can he endure from the fractured rib. He was fitted with a protective vest that he wore in practice and will wear in the game.

That he was able to throw passes without any visible signs of labor is positive.

The same is true for Bryant who has not practiced since the season opener against the Jets because of a deep thigh bruise. He missed last Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Fantasy Impact:

While a lot can happen between now and Monday, it seems like things are looking up for Romo and Bryant. If they are your best options at their respective positions, plan on starting them unless something changes.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
