3 years agoDallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (calf) is a strong fantasy option, like always, if he plays in a Week 8 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Prescott and the Cowboys are coming off their bye week, but the last time he was on the field, Prescott threw for 445 yards and three touchdowns. Even with the bye week to rest though, Prescott is still unsure if he will start this game. Speaking on Thursday, Prescott said he believes he will play but that the decision may not be solely up to him. The Cowboys want to be careful with their signal caller, but he seems much more likely to play than to sit. He's been a fantasy QB1 for three weeks in a row and in four of the six games the Cowboys have played so far. Minnesota's defense could be a challenge, but the Cowboys have proven that they have an elite offense that is becoming mostly matchup-proof. Prescott is a mid-range QB1 this week with top-tier upside.--David A Marcillo - RotoBaller
