Ezekiel Elliott
RB - Dallas Cowboys
Availability
Ezekiel Elliott rushed the ball one time for eight yards and caught three passes for 16 yards in Monday's 34-10 loss to the Houston Texans.
Fantasy Impact
The team recently made the decision to make Rico Dowdle their clear-cut RB1, so Elliott wasn't given many opportunities on Monday night. He caught three passes, but he rushed the ball just one time, which doesn't bode well for his future fantasy value if he continues to see so little opportunities. Fantasy managers shouldn't bother rostering him for the time being.
Ezekiel Elliott rushed the ball six times for 22 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
Elliott was able to play on Sunday after missing last week's game, but he didn't end up having a good performance. He totaled just 22 yards on poor efficiency, and he also lost a fumble on top of that. Fantasy managers shouldn't even consider rostering him with Dak Prescott (hamstring) very possibly missing the remainder of the season.
Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said that Ezekiel Elliott would “be available this week.”
Fantasy Impact
Elliott was inactive last week for the Cowboys. He remains off the fantasy radar.
Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott will be a healthy inactive for Week 9.
Fantasy Impact
Elliott is not traveling with the team and will be inactive for disciplinary reasons. Dalvin Cook was elevated from the practice squad to provide depth against the Falcons.
Ezekiel Elliott carried the ball 10 times for 34 yards and a touchdown while adding a four-yard catch in a 30-24 loss to the 49ers in Week 8.
Fantasy Impact
Elliott got the majority of the backfield work with Rico Dowdle getting ruled out with an illness earlier in the day. Elliott found the end zone on a one-yard run in the second quarter, giving him his second touchdown of the season. With Dalvin Cook also getting involved in Week 8's loss, Elliott will be tough to trust in fantasy in Week 9 against the Falcons.
