Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson made six catches in a Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Ferguson was targeted six times, making a catch on all six for 69 yards total. It was another strong floor game for Ferguson, who was consistently able to put up solid fantasy performances even in games where he did not find the end zone. Ferguson and the Cowboys will face the Green Bay Packers in Dallas next weekend for the first round of the NFL playoffs.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb scored another two touchdowns in a Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Lamb was targeted 13 times, making all 13 catches for 98 yards and the two scores. His scores came from four yards out in the second quarter and from six yards out in the third. Lamb was easily one of the best wide receivers in both "real life" and fantasy this year, and he wrapped up his regular season by scoring at least one touchdown in nine of his last 11 games. He and the Cowboys will face off against the Green Bay Packers in Dallas for the first round of the NFL playoffs next weekend.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle got a little extra playing time in a big Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Dowdle ran the ball nine times, gaining 46 yards. He was targeted four times in the passing game, making three catches for 54 yards, including a big play in which he caught a pass for a 32-yard gain. With the Cowboys fully in charge of the game, the backups got a little time to play and Dowdle made the most of it. He's a solid backup and at times this season looked better than starter Tony Pollard, but Pollard was ultimately able to fight him off and keep the Dallas depth chart as it was.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott threw four touchdowns in a Week 18 blowout win over the Washington Commanders. Prescott attempted 36 throws, completing 31 of them for 279 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. He did not take a sack nor did he record a rushing attempt. It was an excellent game for Prescott after a slightly slow start in the first quarter, and he was even able to take a seat toward the end of the game as backup Cooper Rush wrapped things up for the Cowboys regular season. The Cowboys will host the Green Bay Packers in the first round of the NFL playoffs next weekend.
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) was a full participant during Friday's practice session and will be active in Week 18 against the Washington Commanders after he missed the Week 17 win over the Detroit Lions. Dowdle began the week with a limited practice session but was able to practice in full on Thursday and Friday. He figures to operate as the primary backup to Tony Pollard in the backfield in a game the Cowboys need to win to secure the NFC East title. There won't be a ton of streaming appeal here, so fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help.
