Rico Dowdle Ruled Out Versus Pats

Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle (hip) won't return to Sunday's game versus the New England Patriots. The 25-year-old logged only three carries for nine yards before sustaining a hip injury, so the limited number of fantasy managers that had him in the lineup didn't get much from him. He'll likely undergo further tests to determine the extent of the injury, meaning he might not play in Week 5 against the 49ers. If that's the case, Deuce Vaughn would likely get more snaps, although not enough to become a relevant fantasy option.
