Jason Witten Injury News

Cowboys won't rest starters in Week 16

11:14am EST 12/26/16

Cowboys won't rest starters in Week 16

Cowboys HC Jason Garrett confirmed to ESPN's Ed Werder that he won't rest starters in tonight's game against the Lions. Dallas has clinched the NFC's #1 seed and could limit or hold out some guys in the regular-season finale. But doing so tonight would mean 3 weeks off between games. QB Dak Prescott, RB Ezekiel Elliott, WR Dez Bryant and TE Jason Witten are all safe to use in Week 16 fantasy lineups.

ESPN's Adam Schefter confirms that Cowboys WR Dez Bryant (knee) is not expected to play against the 49ers on Sunday. He's likely looking at a multi-week absence. We've removed Bryant from the Week 4 Rankings, lowered QB Dak Prescott and given bumps up to Cole Beasley, Terrance Williams and Jason Witten.

Despite spraining both ankles and a knee last weekend, Cowboys TE Jason Witten is listed as probable for Sunday’s game against the Falcons. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday. He’ll run his streak to 190 straight games played. But at less than 100% and with Brandon Weeden under center, Witten is just a low-end TE1.
