For those in big play/sack heavy leagues, keep an eye on Mr. Spencer, he has a shot to start over Greg Ellis this week and may be a nice play down the stretch. Spencer is fresh, has been impressing Phillips and has some good matchups.
Veteran starting outside linebacker Greg Ellis could get benched in favor of second-year player Anthony Spencer.
Coach Wade Phillips wasn't available to the media Wednesday, but the day after the Cowboys' loss to the New York Giants, he praised Spencer's performance.
Spencer said the defensive coaches have told him he will play on first and second down more.
The Cowboys could move Ellis to a third-down pass rusher role, or put him on the field with Spencer and the other starting outside linebacker, DeMarcus Ware, in some passing situations.
Spencer Now Ready For More
Dallas Cowboys' Spencer may start ahead of Ellis
