By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 30th 2023, 1:05pm EST

Dowdle enters the low-end flex conversation this week with the matchup for the ground game. Dowdle hasn't seen a ton of work this season, averaging 6.2 touches and 28.7 total yards per game, but he has had at least ten touches in two of his last three games with Dallas blowing opponents out, which could happen again versus Seattle. Dowdle has flashed some juice with the ball, ranking seventh in yards after contact per attempt (minimum 50 carries). Since Week 7, Seattle has allowed the third-highest explosive run rate, the second-most missed tackles per attempt, and the highest yards after contact per attempt. Week 13 Positional Value: Low-end flex
