Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant caught eight passes for 110 yards Sunday. He was targeted a season-high 16 times as the Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles, 17-3.
Dez Bryant tops 100 yards for Cowboys, fantasy owners
The Cowboys wide receiver was kept out of the end zone, but still managed 110 yards Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.

The game was Bryant’s third 100-plus-yard game of the season. He had 141 yards in Weeks 2 and 5. Though the receiver was kept out of the end zone Sunday, he sits at six touchdowns for the season. He also has three games of fewer than 40 yards, but his big games have been very big.
Fantasy impact: When Bryant is on, he’s as good a receiver as exists in the NFL, but he has been disappointingly inconsistent for fantasy owners through seven games this season.
Bryant was targeted more than twice as many times as any other receiver on the team Sunday, further indication that he is separating himself from the rest of the group as Miles Austin battles injury and Terrance Williams works to establish himself.
