Ryan Flournoy Projected as Cowboys' No. 3 Wide Receiver in 2026
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy is expected to be third on the depth chart when the 2026 season begins, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Machota's roster projection indicates that the Cowboys won't make any major additions at wide receiver this offseason, leaving Flournoy in the No. 3 role behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. This is an unsurprising development, as the Cowboys already have $61.3 million allocated to Lamb and Pickens, so an external addition at wide receiver wouldn't make much sense. Plus, Flournoy had an impressive 2025 season, catching 40 passes for 475 yards and four touchdowns across 16 games. He stepped up when teammates went down, such as when he caught nine passes for 115 yards and one touchdown in Week 14. Realistically, Flournoy is one of the better No. 3 receivers in the NFL, and he could handle the jump to being a fantasy-relevant No. 2 receiver if Lamb or Pickens miss any time in 2026. As a result, he's a low-cost trade target in deep dynasty leagues this offseason.
