Brandin Cooks (knee) not expected to play in Cowboys' Week 2 tilt

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) is not expected to play in the team's Week 2 game against the New York Jets.

What It Means:

Cooks suffered a knee sprain in the Cowboys' dominant Week 1 win over the New York Giants and is now trending towards missing the team's Week 2 game against the Jets. numberFire's model gives the Cowboys a 73.4% win probability for the game, so the team seems likely to err on the side of caution with the health of their players in this one.

With Cooks sidelined Michael Gallup could step back into a more prominent role in Week 2, while second-year pro Jalen Tolbert could see his largest snap share yet in the NFL. Gallup has a $5,700 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 6.7 fantasy points.
