Outlook Dameon Pierce
Dameon Pierce vs. Cowboys — Flex Viability Hinges on Saquon Barkley's Status
With Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley on injured reserve, Pierce has capitalized on recent backfield opportunities, logging 23 carries and six catches over his last two games. However, his Week 7 workload is heavily clouded by Saquon Barkley practicing in a limited capacity with a hamstring injury. With Tanner McKee under center, Philadelphia will look to establish the run against Dallas.
If Barkley is inactive, our projections forecast Pierce for roughly 14 carries, 66 total yards, and 10.6 fantasy points, placing him squarely in the flex conversation. Conversely, if Barkley plays, Pierce's start percentage—sitting at 18%—justifies leaving him on the bench, as he would revert to a touchdown-dependent backup.

Jaylin Noel vs NYG — Explosive Playmaker Looking to Sustain Recent Momentum
Noel has surged over the past two games, turning nine targets into nine catches for 148 yards and two touchdowns, highlighted by an efficient 107-yard showing in Week 6. Even with Marvin Harrison Jr. entering a crowded receiving corps alongside Nico Collins and Tank Dell, Noel’s explosive playmaking keeps earning him high-leverage reps in Houston's offense.
While his recent spark has pushed his roster rate above 40%, Noel remains a rotational piece in a game where Houston enters as heavy double-digit home favorites. Our models project him for around 4.9 fantasy points on roughly two to three targets, making him a volatile deep-league flex or high-upside stash this week.
