Dallas Cowboys DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert is coming off his worst performance of the season during last week's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Tolbert was held without a catch on three targets in the seven-point defeat. The 25-year-old has seen his playing time take a hit with Brandin Cooks returning to the field two weeks ago. Since then, Tolbert has seen less than 72 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the last two games. Tolbert has been held to two receptions or less in each of the last four games. It's tough to imagine Tolbert having reliable value going forward with Cooks and CeeDee Lamb both healthy.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin remains a shaky fantasy option ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Last week, Turpin hauled in one of his four targets for 16 yards in the loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He also rushed the ball twice for 15 yards, but he only saw 17 percent of the offensive snaps. The return of Brandin Cooks has pushed Turpin further back on the depth chart in recent weeks. It's hard to imagine Turpin making much of an impact as the fourth or fifth wideout in this offense.

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams has a great matchup in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, but he's still hard to trust as a flex option in fantasy leagues in the first round of the playoffs. Williams leads the team in carries (124), rushing yards (446) and rushing touchdowns (four), but he's averaging a mere 3.6 yards per carry and is now no longer the clear leader of the backfield after Jaleel McLaughlin saw a team-high 14 carries in the Week 13 win over the Browns. In the last four games, Williams has just 22 rushing attempts for 59 yards (2.69 yards per tote) and two TDs. The Colts defense has allowed the second-most rushing yards per game (147) and fourth-most half-PPR points per game to RBs, so Denver's ground game could have a rare good performance. However, Williams isn't guaranteed to see lead-back volume, making him a tough-to-trust RB3/flex in deeper fantasy leagues.

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey was perfect again last week in the narrow loss to Cincinnati, drilling 2-of-2 field goal attempts and 2-of-2 extra point attempts. He draws a good matchup this week against the Carolina Panthers, who have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing kickers in 2024. Even with how inefficient the offense has been with Cooper Rush under center, Dallas is bound to score some points in Week 15. Aubrey is a safe option against Carolina.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson still has not found the end zone in the 2024 campaign. With that being said, he is still the second option in the passing game behind CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) and is set to take on Carolina's 32nd-ranked defense against opposing tight ends. Ferguson has a low floor but also a potentially high ceiling this week as he continues to search for his first touchdown of the 2024 campaign. With how shallow the tight end position is, he can be started.
