The Athletic's Jon Machota expects Cowboys RB Malik Davis to enter camp as the primary backup running back.
The undrafted second-year back served as the team's third option at the position his rookie season and appears primed to enter camp as the team's primary backup to starter Tony Pollard. The 5'10", 210-pound back is well suited to handle a change of pace role, likely leaving passing downs to be split between Pollard and 2023 sixth-round rookie Deuce Vaughn. In all likelihood, Vaughn is looking at a situational gadget role until he can prove capable in pass protection.

Fantasy Impact:
Dowdle has limited NFL experience, playing in just 20 games since the 2020 season, tallying seven carries in those games. The 25-year-old appears to have the edge over Malik Davis and Ronald Jones to serve as the backup to Tony Pollard. Fantasy managers should view Dowdle as a valuable handcuff should he hold onto the second RB spot heading into the regular season.
