Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) is expected to play in the team's Week 12 game against the Washington Commanders on Thursday.
Dowdle has developed into a solid RB2 for the Cowboys this season, mixing in for touches behind Tony Pollard. The former undrafted free agent has been dealing with an ankle injury recently but is now expected to suit up against Washington.
Dowdle is currently projected for 5.1 FanDuel points in Week 12 but could find himself with a surprisingly large workload if the Cowboys get out to an early lead over the Commanders. He has a $5,100 salary for today's contests.
