ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert has had a solid first month of the season. The third-year player has passed Brandin Cooks as the team's No. 2 wide receiver. Last week, he had only three receptions for 24 receiving yards and 3.9 half-point PPR fantasy points against the New York Giants.
However, Tolbert had back-to-back impressive performances before last week. He had six receptions on nine targets for 82 receiving yards and 11.2 fantasy points in Week 2. The third-year player had three receptions on five targets for 42 receiving yards and his first touchdown this year in Week 3, totaling 11.7 fantasy points.
While CeeDee Lamb and Jake Ferguson are Dak Prescott's top two options in the passing game, Tolbert could carve out a role as the No. 3 guy. Fantasy players in deeper leagues should add him off the waiver wire. Tolbert is a solid flex option in deeper leagues this week.
