Dalton Schultz Expected To Play Against Bears
2 years agoDallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz (knee) is expected to start in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, barring a setback, despite being officially listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report. Dallas kept Schultz's workload limited throughout the week and he should be fine to play this weekend. The 26-year-old has done very little since spraining his PCL in Week 2, but he had five catches for 49 yards in the Week 7 win over the Detroit Lions in the first game with quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) back. Schultz is on the TE1/2 borderline in fantasy in Week 8, but his ceiling is higher with Prescott under center and the further removed he gets from his PCL injury. Keep in mind that Chicago's defense has been stingy against tight ends, too, allowing just 5.7 half-point PPR points per game to the position this year.
