Dak Prescott To Face Toughest Test Yet In Week 4

Friday, October 2, 10:01 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will face the best defense in the NFL from a year ago in Week 4. The Cowboys will go on the road to take on the Houston Texans, who have one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL, one of its best cover cornerbacks, and a renowned defensive-minded head coach. Prescott hasn't faced the Texans since 2022, when they were nothing like they team they are today, so we don't have much precedent to go off of. But he's been productive so far this year, with seven passing touchdowns to just one interception. He hasn't fumbled yet either. Taking care of the football will be crucial, as the Texans were third in the NFL in 2025 with 29 turnovers forced. Prescott is a must-start in 2QB and superflex leagues, but there's reason for some trepidation in 1QB leagues, where he's a low-end QB1 due to the difficulty of the matchup.

Josh Allen News

Josh Allen Not Listed on Wednesday's Injury Report

Wednesday, September 30, 1:28 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (knee) was not listed on the team's injury report on Wednesday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. There was some concern about Allen's status after he took a shot to his left knee in the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, especially since he seemed to be favoring his left leg in the clubhouse following the game. Head coach Joe Brady said that Allen is good to go, and his Wednesday full practice status supports that. We will keep a close eye on the 30-year-old former MVP's left knee, but barring a setback later this week, he should be locked into all starting fantasy lineups this weekend for a divisional clash at home against the visiting New England Patriots. Allen has picked up where he left off for fantasy managers and already has 786 passing yards and five touchdowns, and over 100 rushing yards and six rushing scores in three games in 2026.
