Ryan Flournoy scores late touchdown in Week 6 defeat

Dallas Cowboys WR Ryan Flournoy caught seven passes for 40 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. He was targeted nine times.

Why It Matters: Although he’s well behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, Flournoy has quietly become a bigger part of the passing game than Jake Ferguson. On Sunday night, he finished third on the team in targets, second on the team in receptions, and he had the only receiving touchdown. He’s not a reliable fantasy option just yet, but Flournoy has put his name into the WR5 conversation for those in larger leagues.
