0:12.0

Welcome to fantasy football today in five. I'm Chris Towers, joined by Dan Schneier. And today,

0:18.0

we're going to be recapping Monday night football and talking about the top

0:21.2

waiver wire targets looking ahead to week four not sure there's a ton of great options on waivers

0:27.2

but there is one guy who really stands out we'll get to that shortly but first let's talk about

0:31.5

our top takeaways from the cowboys and i think we have to start off with ezekiel it's performance

0:36.2

17 carries 95 yards two touchdowns three catches on three targets for 31 yards.

0:41.7

That's his best fantasy day of the season.

0:44.3

Where are we at on Ezekieliot, given the concerns about Tony Pollard's role so far?

0:50.5
