Dalton Schultz Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz (knee) will slowly increase his activity level at practice leading up to the Monday Night Football matchup against the Giants. If all goes well, the veteran may be available. Schultz is currently plagued by a PCL issue in his right knee, an injury he sustained during the Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. However, if things don't look favorable, Schultz won't suit up for the NFC East showdown. Fortunately, Michael Gallup (knee) practiced fully on Thursday, so if Schultz can't play in Week 3, Cooper Rush may have Gallup to help soften the blow.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz (knee) is dealing with a PCL issue in his right knee after he was injured late in the Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. It's unclear if Schultz will miss any games. "The issue is whether he goes this week or not," owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan. "I don't look for this to be, my assessment is, it's not long term." With Dallas' Week 3 game coming on Monday night against the New York Giants, fantasy managers should already be preparing to go in another direction. On top of it, Schultz had just two catches for 18 yards on four targets from quarterback Cooper Rush before he was injured on Sunday. Rookie tight end Jake Ferguson would get the start on Monday if Schultz can't play, but he won't be on the streaming radar.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said the team feels "good about the scan" on tight end Dalton Schultz (knee) on Monday. However, the team doesn't know whether Schultz will be available for the Week 3 game on Monday night against the New York Giants until leading up closer to the game. The 26-year-old avoided an ACL injury and isn't expected to be out for a significant amount of time, but there's a strong possibility he won't play in Week 3 after injuring his right knee late in the Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. With Schultz trending as a game-time decision this week, fantasy managers should look to go in another direction for now. If Schultz cannot suit up next Monday night, rookie Jake Ferguson will have a much bigger role on offense.
