Seth McGowan vs. Dallas — Handcuff Option With Limited Standalone Value
Seth McGowan has settled into the primary backup role behind Jonathan Taylor in Indianapolis, handling 16 carries over his last two games. While his roster percentage has climbed above 50% as managers secure premium backfield insurance, his minimal 2% start rate mirrors his secondary involvement.
In a matchup with shootout potential against the Cowboys, our models project McGowan for roughly 7 carries and 32 rushing yards (4.5 fantasy points). Without an injury to Taylor or substantial garbage-time work, he does not offer reliable standalone flex value and should remain sidelined.

Denzel Boston at New Orleans — Target Volume Keeps Rookie in Solid Flex Territory
Boston is completely cleared following a minor injury scare last week and remains Cleveland's primary outside receiver on the depth chart. The rookie has commanded strong volume, drawing 19 targets over his last two games. Keep an eye on quarterback Deshaun Watson, who is questionable with a concussion.
Our weekly projection slates Boston for roughly 3.2 receptions, 52 receiving yards, and 0.4 touchdowns (10.7 fantasy points) against New Orleans. While his yardage efficiency dipped recently, his heavy target share provides a dependable floor, making him a viable WR3 or flex option for managers this week.
