Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) is going on Injured Reserve on Saturday, which means he will miss at least the next four games. In a corresponding move, the Cowboys moved linebacker Nick Vigil to the active 53-man. Amani Oruwariye and Carl Lawson are also being elevated from the practice squad. Cooks had already been ruled out for Week 5's Sunday night game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but now he won't be eligible to return until Week 10 against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. The Cowboys have their bye in Week 7. This news certainly makes Jalen Tolbert more attractive as a waiver-wire pickup if he's still available in your league, as he's expected to see a substantial role increase as the WR2 in Dallas behind CeeDee Lamb with Cooks sidelined. Cooks caught nine of 19 targets for 91 yards and one touchdown in the first four weeks of the season.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill caught six of nine targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Hill's performance marked his best since Week 1, and his longest catch came on a 30-yard reception down the right sideline. This wasn't the performance fantasy managers were hoping for with the return of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). Although the yardage totals weren't the best, seeing Hill garner nine targets was encouraging. Overall, Miami's offense looked much better with Tagovailoa under center than the previous four games. Miami has several great matchups over the next several weeks, so better days are ahead for the 30-year-old. Next week will not be one of them when they travel to Buffalo next Sunday to face a Bills defense that has been stingy against wide receivers.
