Cowboys Beat: Third straight week RB Rico Dowdle dominates carries

David Helman on X

Dec 10 · 9:10 AM EST

Starting in Washington, this is now his third straight week Rico Dowdle taking 70%+ of the carries.

Related players: Ezekiel Elliott, Deuce Vaughn, Dalvin Cook

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say Dowdle was averaging 48% of the Cowboys' carries over the course of his first nine games. Pittsburgh was the only week he got more than 57% of the team's carries. We did report, even starting back in summer, that Dowdle was the best RB on the team according to those who cover the Cowboys. Unfortunately for owners, it took some time for Dowdle to become the clear RB1, but for those who own him heading into the playoffs, this is a comforting stat to know. The next question will be what is Dowdle's future with the Cowboys. With so many needs and questions heading into 2025, it's possible Dowdle is back as an overall inexpensive option.

DAL RB Rico Dowdle - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Coming off of a massive 149-yard rushing performance in Week 15, Rico Dowdle has further solidified the fact that giving any other RB the ball is a -EV decision. The Buccaneers are easier to attack through the air than the ground, but that might simply equate to more targets for the RB, which is just fine by us. Consider him a fringe RB1/2 in Week 16.
