Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report, meaning he will make his return against the Arizona Cardinals. Cooks suffered an MCL sprain in the season opener and was held out of the Week 2 win over the New York Jets. The Cowboys didn't need to throw the ball in the 40-0 blowout over the New York Giants in Week 1, so Cooks had just two receptions for 22 yards in his Cowboys debut. The same could be true this Sunday against the 0-2 Cardinals, so Cooks isn't exactly an intriguing flex play for fantasy managers this weekend while coming off a knee injury.

In the first two weeks of the new NFL season, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett has had two wildly different games. In the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, he was held to 10 receiving yards on two catches. Last week against the Lions, Lockett came back to life and caught eight balls for 59 yards and two touchdowns. In Week 3, the Seahawks host the Carolina Panthers, their opponent from Week 14 last season. In that matchup, Lockett caught five passes for 60 yards and a score. So far this season, the ninth-year veteran is on the field for 87% of snaps and is leading the team in targets per game. Even with Jaxon Smith-Njigba nipping at his heels, Lockett's usage dictates that he be started in Week 3.
