Ezekiel Elliott will play in Week 16

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott will play in Week 16 against the Eagles.

Fantasy Impact:

Elliott missed Week 15 against the 49ers but was trending towards returning for what amounts to an elimination game against the Eagles, though a Washington win eliminates both teams. After Tony Pollard’s big day against the 49ers, Dallas could split the workload pretty evenly between the two. The down year for Elliott was empathized by Alvin Kamara scoring more touchdowns against the Vikings (6) than Elliott has scored all season (5). Both backs are flex options for championship week.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Elliott didn't practice at all last week so three limited practices should equate to availability on Sunday. His workload is uncertain given Tony Pollard's recent production.

Cowboys WR Michael Gallup will not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News.

Fantasy Impact:

This keep the Cowboys WR trio in tact in an important NFC East battle.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf) took limited practice reps again Thursday. It looks like Elliott will return this week though we favor Tony Pollard in the rankings since he's healthy and is playing better.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Elliott expects to be back this week and it's unclear what role he'll have after Tony Pollard's big game. For now, we have Pollard ranked ahead of Elliott.

Cowboys Head Coach Mike McCarthy announced that running back Ezekiel Elliott will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Zeke was held out of last week's game as a game-time decision, but the limited Wednesday practice suggests he has a decent chance at returning in Week 16. Backup Tony Pollard performed admirably in Elliott's absence and would get another start if Zeke is forced to sit again. Check back later in the week for updates on Elliott's status.

Cowboys WR Michael Gallup dealing with hip pointer

Cowboys WR Michael Gallup avoided serious injury in Sunday’s win over 49ers. Exited third quarter with a hip pointer, source said.

Related players: Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb

Fantasy Impact:

Gallup hasn’t been ruled out for Sunday’s divisional game against Eagles, the tweet said. And with the Cowboys and the rest of the NFC East teams still alive for the division, this will be a key game for both teams so Gallup may try to play through the injury. He produced a 3-26-1 line behind Lamb's 8-85-0 line last week, while Cooper had just two catches for 10 yards in the win over the 49ers.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 15. Elliott was limited all last week and ultimately split the backfield work with Tony Pollard, so this is a downgrade. Both Mike McCarthy (per Todd Archer) and Jerry Jones (per Michael Gehlken) said that they expect Elliott to play on Sunday. Thankfully, the Cowboys play early on Sunday.
