Chicago Bears wide receiver Alshon Jeffery will play in Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Jeffery was listed as questionable entering Thursday due to a hamstring injury that has caused him to miss some practice time. However, few believed Jeffery was actually questionable, which is supposed to denote a 50 percent chance of playing.
Alshon Jeffery will play Thursday, per report; fantasy value high
Chicago Bears wide receiver Alshon Jeffery will play in Thursday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, according to a report. We break down the fantasy implications.


Jeffery has been solid this season, with 67 receptions for 854 yards and seven touchdowns, and has been a favorite target of Jay Cutler, especially in recent weeks. He saw 17 targets in a win over the Minnesota Vikings on Nov. 16, and another 13 targets against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving.
Fantasy Impact: Jeffery will play in this game; there’s little doubt about that. The Cowboys rank 20th in the league at defending the pass, allowing 244.5 passing yards per game. There’s no reason for Jeffery to get fewer targets since he shouldn’t be limited due to his injury. He’s a must-start this week.
