Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott drew the start on Sunday night with Rico Dowdle (illness) being a late scratch. The veteran led the rushing attack with 10 carries for 34 yards and a touchdown. He added a reception for four yards in what turned out to be his best fantasy outing since Week 1. With Dowdle likely to be back next week, Elliott's fantasy relevance was likely short-lived.

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon put together another productive fantasy day on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts by compiling 134 total yards, four catches, and a touchdown. He once again drew steady volume in the running game, turning 25 carries into 102 rushing yards, and he was second on the team with six targets. The veteran back had the possibility for even more, but lost a fumble inside the Colts' 10-yard line late in the fourth quarter, though the Texans still held on for a 23-20 victory. Mixon will look to keep up his good form when Houston visits the New York Jets in Week 9.
