Dallas Cowboys DFS Spin
Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs (illness) will not play Week 18 against the Eagles. Diggs is reportedly dealing with a non-COVID illness and did not make the trip to Philadelphia. Assuming that report is correct, the interception leader should be ready to go for the playoffs. Dallas will also be without CB Anthony Brown, who is on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Philadelphia Eagles DFS Spin
Jalen Hurts (ankle) was limited in Wednesday’s practice. Hurts has been limited in practice the last few weeks. He’s not in any danger of missing Week 18 versus Dallas.
