Rico Dowdle News
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday as his team prepares to face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14. Dowdle has been dealing with an ankle injury for several weeks now, an injury that he has been playing through. As long as he doesn't suffer a setback through the remainder of the week, Dowdle is in line to take his normal spot as the team's backup RB behind Tony Pollard in Week 14.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle remained in the backseat behind starter Tony Pollard in a Week 13 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Dowdle ran the ball five times, gaining 15 yards and added one catch for seven more yards. His six touches didn't come close to Pollard's 23. The gap that seemed to be closing between the two running backs a few weeks ago has now widened again, leaving Dowdle as little more than a direct backup in fantasy formats and no longer a starting option in the majority of formats.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) was able to practice in full on Wednesday and has been removed from the Week 13 injury report after two limited practices to begin the week. He will be active on Thursday night as the team takes on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. The 25-year-old has been playing through a minor ankle injury in recent weeks, but he'll be good to go in primetime as Tony Pollard's backup. The South Carolina alum is averaging over four yards per carry and has three total touchdowns (one rushing, two receiving) on the year, but he's just not seeing enough work behind Pollard to be a realistic starting option in fantasy lineups. In the Thanksgiving win over the Washington Commanders, he saw only four touches but did find the end zone on a 15-yard catch.
