Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin was a full participant in practice on Thursday and it does not appear that his hamstring injury will stop him from starting against the Ravens on Sunday. The Cowboys are 30th in scoring offense this season, but Austin has scored a touchdown in three of four games.

Fantasy Take: “Lingering injuries” and Miles Austin go hand-in-hand, so you have to move forward as if it’s just another day at the office for him. Austin has been one of the only productive Cowboys through three games and they now must face off against Baltimore. That’s not quite as bad as it used to be, however. The Ravens are 24th in total defense and 22nd in passing defense through five games. However, they’ve only allowed two passing touchdowns. Austin is a low WR2, high Flex play for Week 6.
