Team news: Dallas Cowboys | Page 3

The Steelers are signing veteran WR Robert Woods to a 1-year, $2M deal. A new target and big-time locker room presence for… whoever their QB ends up being. The former Texans WR lands in a great spot.

Related Players: DK Metcalf, George Pickens, Calvin Austin, Roman Wilson

Should Woods stick on the team until the regular season, he'll have more of an impact keeping sophomore Roman Wilson on the field than he would for the top of the depth chart. We'll have to wait and see how things shake out with Pickens' status as a Steeler throughout the summer.

Miles Sanders plans to sign with the Cowboys on a one-year deal.

Related Players: Javonte Williams, Deuce Vaughn

We've got quite the interesting batch of running backs sitting in Dallas now, but none of these names excludes them from going after the position in the Draft. Sanders joins Javonte Williams as two of the least efficient backs in the league over the last couple of seasons, which fits the mold of them bringing back Ezekiel Elliott not so long ago.

Sanders should not be in fantasy consideration and could have a hard time making the final roster, depending on what the final contract looks like.

Former Broncos RB Javonte Williams is signing a one-year, $3 million deal with the Cowboys, per sources. Max $3.5M with incentives.

Related Players: Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn

This likely means that Dowdle will be out of the picture, but his re-signing is still up in the air as it stands. The Cowboys are still (very) likely to grab a running back with decent draft capital, so Williams' fantasy impact is capped, but he can be considered somewhere in the RB3/4 range with good opportunity to open the year.

The Steelers are sending a 2025 second-round pick to Seattle in exchange for WR DK Metcalf.

Pittsburgh will sign Metcalf to a five-year, $150 million extension, per source.

Related Players: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, George Pickens, Calvin Austin, Mike Williams

It was reported that Metcalf wanted to play "somewhere warm" with a competitive quarterback, and the Steelers have exactly zero of those things. Metcalf will battle Pickens as Pittsburgh's WR1, with Justin Fields possibly in pole position as the starting QB. Metcalf should be considered in fringe WR2/3 range.

The Cowboys are shutting down CeeDee Lamb for the final two games. From the team:

"Additional examinations and scans this week on CeeDee Lamb’s shoulder have determined that his injury has now progressed to a point that he will be listed as "Out" for the remaining two games of the season.

"He will undergo a process of treatment and rehabilitation for his shoulder, is not currently expected to require surgery and is projected to make a full recovery."

Related Players: Brandin Cooks, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Tolbert, Jonathan Mingo

Cooper Rush will be left with an interesting cast of characters here; none of which should be plugged into Championship lineups unless you're in a wildly deep league.

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.

George Pickens and DeShon Elliott were a full participants in today's walk through.

It's great news for the Steeler offense that Pickens looks to be on track to play in Week 17. The hope would be Pickens is able to log a full workload in the game as well, which is a Christmas Day contest against the Chiefs. It's not the best matchup coming off an injury but Pickens should be back as the team's WR1.

49ers injury report vs. Dolphins:
Out
RB Isaac Guerendo (foot, hamstring)
OT Trent Williams (ankle)
Questionable
DE Nick Bosa (hip, oblique)
LB Dre Greenlaw (Achilles, knee)
DE Robert Beal (ankle)
(Approximately, 70% of the players the 49ers listed as questionable have played.)

Related Players: Patrick Taylor, Kyle Juszczyk, Israel Abanikanda

We're assuming Taylor will now be the next, next man up, but they also have Abanikanda, as well as Ke'Shawn Vaughn on the practice squad. Taylor should be considered somewhere in the RB3 range if Guerendo is out, but the others should just be on WW watch for now.

The Steelers ruled out WR George Pickens and QB Justin Fields for Saturday vs. Baltimore.

OLB T.J. Watt (ankle) is off the injury report and will play.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams, Scott Miller

We really can't trust any of these ancillary pieces with Pickens missing, and it comes as a huge downgrade to Russell Wilson and the offense, in general.

After losing RBs Christian McCaffrey, Jordan Mason and Elijah Mitchell to season-ending injuries, it now looks as if the 49ers will be without RB Isaac Guerendo for Sunday’s game vs. Miami. Guerendo is dealing with a hamstring injury and is unlikely to play, per source.

Related Players: Patrick Taylor, Kyle Juszczyk, Israel Abanikanda

Sheesh. We're assuming Taylor will now be the next, next man up, but they also have Abanikanda, as well as Ke'Shawn Vaughn on the practice squad. Taylor should be considered somewhere in the RB3 range if Guerendo is out.
