Jalen Brooks DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Brooks (knee) was upgraded to a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. Brooks sat out of practice to begin the week after missing last week's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Normally, the status of Brooks isn't too important, but he could be in line for a larger workload with fellow wideout CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) done for the season. The 24-year-old hasn't done much this season with 11 receptions for 165 yards and a touchdown in 12 games. He's too risky of a streaming choice to trust in important fantasy championship games this weekend.

Dallas Cowboys second-year wide receiver Jalen Brooks hauled in the first touchdown of his career late in the Week 15 win over Carolina. The South Carolina product has seldom been used over the majority of his first two seasons, but he has made noise in the preseason and looked good on the 17-yard touchdown connection with Cooper Rush. He is not on the fantasy radar, but will be worth monitoring for deep dynasty leagues in the event that he earns more of a role going forward.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Brooks (ankle) is officially questionable for the team's Week 3 home tilt against the visiting Baltimore Ravens. The 24-year-old received the tag after popping up on the injury report Thursday, putting together back-to-back limited sessions ahead of the team's matchup. Through two games, Brooks has converted 2-of-4 targets for 28 yards on 41 total snaps. It's the fourth-most of any Cowboys wideout -- however, CeeDee Lamb, Jalen Tolbert, and Brandin Cooks have all recorded 102 snaps or more. The second-year receiver is a more critical special teams player for Dallas as opposed to his offensive contributions. He can be firmly off fantasy manager's radars outside deep dynasty leagues.
