According to Ian Rapoport, Ezekiel Elliott will receive starter reps in the game against the Cowboys. Despite not technically starting, this means increased work for Elliott against his former team. In the previous game, Elliott carried the ball 16 times but was outperformed by Rhamondre Stevenson. The Patriots may continue to rely on their rushing game against Dallas, who has a weaker run defense. As a result, Elliott's fantasy value has been elevated for Week 4, making him a potential low RB2 or flex option. Stevenson's role remains uncertain, but Elliott is still considered a fantasy starter.
