From the article

Daniels looked like the future of the league in his 2024 OROY-winning debut, but he missed 10 games to injury in 2025, and his efficiency declined (6.9 AY/A vs. 7.6; 4.8 yards per carry vs. 6.0). But Daniels was solid last week against the tough Eagles (17.7 fantasy points), and although he's on the second game of a divisional back-to-back road trip this week, at least he's playing indoors in a game with a strong 50.5-point total. HC Dan Quinn has historically used Week 2 as a launchpad (7-1 ATS, 68.8% ROI)

Daniels gets upgrade vs. Cowboys despite concerns; Quinn's Week 2 success and divisional dog trends support.

Daniels looked like the future in his 2024 OROY-winning debut but missed 10 games to injury in 2025 with declining efficiency (6.9 AY/A vs. 7.6; 4.8 yards per carry vs. 6.0). His top pass catchers (Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs) are aging (31, 32 years old) and his new OC David Blough is young and inexperienced (31, no prior NFL playcalling experience). However, Daniels was solid last week against the Eagles (17.7 fantasy points). Playing indoors at Dallas with a strong 50.5-point total helps. HC Dan Quinn has historically used Week 2 as a launchpad (7-1 ATS, 68.8% ROI), and divisional road dogs have outperformed in Weeks 1-4 (150-117-8 ATS, 9.3% ROI). The Cowboys could be without LB DeMarvion Overshown (hamstring) and FS Malik Hooker (forearm).
