The Athletic's Jon Machota writes that Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and new wide receiver George Pickens "still have some work to together." Although Prescott doesn't have any concerns, his timing has been off with Pickens on some routes, and most of their connections have been on short and intermediate routes early on in training camp. "For him, it's just about continuing to master the offense, the routes and the adjustments on certain routes. When he does that, the rest of it is going to come," Prescott said. It's something to keep track of as camp progresses, but right now, fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as Prescott and Pickens work on their chemistry. CeeDee Lamb will take plenty of targets away from the 24-year-old, but if he can excel deep down the field, Pickens will have plenty of value in fantasy as a WR3/flex in his new home in Dallas.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (toe) plans to practice with a plastic shield on his cleats for the next couple of weeks, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports. Fields is taking precautions after he suffered a dislocated toe on his right foot last Thursday. The 26-year-old, who returned to team drills Monday, said that the injury is "working its way back to 100%" That's a relief for both the Jets and fantasy managers, as so much of Fields' value depends on his elite mobility. The former Chicago Bear and Pittsburgh Steeler hasn't fared great as a passer since entering the league in 2021, but he has been a force on the ground.
