Miles Austin Hopes To Play Next Week: Fantasy Implications
Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin is hopeful he can get into a game by next week. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy Implications: Austin missed six games last year with hamstring injuries and they have lingered into the beginning of this season. He got off to a very hot start last year, catching 21 passes for 307 yards and 4 touchdowns over the first three games, but did not top 5 catches or 70 yards in any of the next seven games that he played. When he’s healthy, Austin can be a number one fantasy wideout, but he has struggled to remain on the field recently which is part of the reason that Dallas is being constantly linked to any free agent wide receiver that comes on the market.
