Rico Dowdle News
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (knee), who missed all of last year with a fractured hip, didn't practice on Wednesday after recently having his knee scoped, according to a source. However, Dowdle is expected to be ready for the start of training camp this summer. The 23-year-old will provide depth behind Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard, and he won't be on the fantasy radar unless one of Elliott or Pollard miss time with injury. Dowdle played in 15 games in his rookie season in 2020, carrying the ball just seven times for 24 yards.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (hip) was placed on injured reserve with a hip injury, ending his season. Dowdle was expected to open the season as the third running back on the Cowboys depth chart, behind Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard. Instead, he'll set his eyes on the 2022 season now. Dowdle drew rave practice reviews all last season, but ended up only carrying the ball seven times for 24 yards in his rookie season. A pair of undrafted free agents, Brenden Knox and JaQuan Hardy, could get their chances now.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle carried the ball four times in Week 15, gaining 11 yards. Dowdle was elevated to backup status with Ezekiel Elliott (calf) inactive and Tony Pollard getting the start. Elliott is expected to be back next week, and Pollard should slide back into the backup role, leaving Dowdle most likely to see the field only on special teams for the remainder of the season.
