Week 8 at Minnesota Vikings
The health of Vikings DT Michael Pierce (elbow) plays a role in how well Minnesota defends the run. Ezekiel Elliott has a chance to be the sixth running back to collect 50 rushing yards and a touchdown in seven contests. That total has been matched in four straight games, three of which Pierce has missed. Even if Zeke is limited on the ground, his usage in the passing game keeps his fantasy floor relatively high. His seven catches for 50 yards were season-highs and in a neutral game script. As long as the Cowboys are not getting their doors blown off, expect Elliott to see another week with 70% or more snaps played and an RB1-type performance.
