Emeka Egbuka at Dallas — Trailing Script Boosts Outlook Amid Quarterback Uncertainty

Operating as Tampa Bay's top outside receiver, Egbuka maintains secure volume with fellow wideout Jalen McMillan sidelined on injured reserve. However, the offense faces questions under center after starting quarterback Baker Mayfield missed Tuesday's practice with a thumb issue. Despite quiet production over the last two games, Egbuka is completely healthy and remains the primary perimeter threat.

Facing Dallas on the road as clear underdogs in a matchup with shootout potential, Tampa Bay will likely lean heavily into the pass. Our projections slate Egbuka for roughly 4 receptions, 44 yards, and 10.7 fantasy points on nearly 7 targets. With fantasy start rates cooling to 55%, he profiles as a viable Flex option.

Darius Cooper Flashes Red-Zone Magic Ahead of London Clash

Cooper has capitalized on high-leverage moments in Philadelphia's offense, converting three of his five receptions this season into touchdowns. Coming off a seven-target, two-score performance against the Rams where he operated opposite Dontayvion Wicks, Cooper has earned Jalen Hurts' trust near the goal line. With DeVonta Smith managing a hamstring injury, Cooper's role in multi-receiver sets remains intriguing.

Despite the scoring surge, Cooper remains a volatile fantasy play who relies heavily on touchdowns. Our weekly projection lands him at roughly 2.1 receptions for 24 yards (5.3 fantasy points) in London against Jacksonville. Rostered in just under four percent of leagues, he profiles as a boom-or-bust deep-league flier rather than a trusted lineup option.
