Rico Dowdle Week 10 Outlook - Eagles at Cowboys

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 7th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Last Week, Dowdle took over the backfield, playing 71% of the snaps with 17 touches and 107 total yards as the RB8. Dowdle also posted a strong 8.3% explosive run rate and 3.08 yards after contact per attempt. It was the type of usage that Dowdle should have been seeing all year. This week, he'll need every snap and touch to put up fantasy points. Since Week 3, the Eagles have been an elite run defense, allowing the seventh-lowest explosive run rate, the third-fewest rushing yards per game, the third-lowest missed tackle rate, and the fifth-lowest yards after contact per attempt.
