After having just two carries in his only game last season, Samkon Gado is trying to show the Rams he's worthy of a long look this season. He scored two touchdowns, bringing his preseason total to three, on six touches for 35 yards. St. Louis is set with Steven Jackson as the starting running back, but it never hurts to have depth in the backfield.

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.

Related Players: Ezekiel Elliott, Deuce Vaughn, Dalvin Cook, Hunter Luepke

Fantasy Impact:

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.

WR Jonathan Mingo set to make Cowboys debut 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.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks

Fantasy Impact:

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.
