The Dallas Cowboys will be leaning on Cedrick Wilson as their third receiver with Michael Gallup done for the season with a torn ACL. Wilson will look to build off his Week 17 outing in Saturday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Fantasy Football analysis: Cowboys WR Cedrick Wilson
The 26-year-old wide receiver had more than five receptions in a game for the first time since Week 12 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Last week against the Cardinals, Wilson had six receptions (six targets) for 35 yards and a touchdown.
The last time Wilson scored a touchdown was in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings, where he also had three receptions (three targets) for 84 yards. The former Boise State wideout has a stingy matchup against the Eagles’ defense, which improved leaps and bounds since the first time these two NFC East rivals played each other in Week 3.
Fantasy Start/Sit Recommendation
The Cowboys aren’t sitting any of their starters for the regular-season finale, which means Wilson should get some snaps and put him on the radar as a FLEX option in fantasy.
