Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott will be inactive for Sunday’s game against the Falcons due to disciplinary reasons.
Elliott will not even travel with the team to Atlanta. The Cowboys elevated Dalvin Cook from the practice squad to help fill out the depth chart. With Elliott out, Rico Dowdle is in line for an increase in work, though it is a tough matchup against one of the better run defenses in the league this season in Atlanta. Dowdle is an RB3/Flex while Cook is a deeper-league option and maybe a bit of a desperation play.
Patriots QB Drake Maye cleared concussion protocol and will play Sunday against the Titans.
Maye suffered the concussion last week against the Jets on a hit by linebacker Jamien Sherwood that landed the defender a fine. The Titans usually sport one of the better defenses but cornerback L’Jarius Sneed will not play. Still, given the worries about the offense, Maye ranks outside our top 25 quarterbacks this week.
The Rams are expected to have WR Puka Nacua (knee) available for Sunday’s game against the Seahawks.
Nacua suffered a knee injury during practice this week but the injury was not expected to be considered serious. According to Russini, Nacua is on the team plane to Seattle. If Nacua can go, he will be one of the better fantasy options. He is currently WR18 on our board in a pretty favorable matchup against the Seahawks.
