Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Steps up in Sunday's win
Tolbert finished with seven receptions (10 targets) for 87 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Steelers.
Tolbert saw his role on offense increase with Brandin Cooks (knee) unavailable Sunday. The former wound up being the hero of Sunday's victory by catching the game-winning touchdown pass with seconds remaining in regulation. Even more impressive is the fact that Tolbert appeared to injure his hand on the previous play, forcing Dallas to use its final timeout so the wideout could remain in the game. Cooks was shifted to injured reserve this weekend, so Tolbert could solidify his grip on the No. 2 behind CeeDee Lamb over the next few weeks, assuming the third-year wideout's injury is minor.

Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Should benefit from Cooks' absence
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy suggested Wednesday that Tolbert could be in line for an increased role on offense with Brandin Cooks (knee) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, and possibly longer, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. "I love the guys we have here," McCarthy said. "The two Jalens [Tolbert and Jalen Brooks], this is more opportunities for them, [KaVontae] Turpin. Yeah, love our practice squad guys. We'll be in good shape [at receiver]."
Tolbert has already been a regular fixture in three-receiver sets this season, with his snap shares ranging from 67 to 85 percent through four games. While Cooks' absence may not necessarily lead to a dramatic spike in playing time for Tolbert, the 4.8 targets per contest that Cooks had been averaging could be redistributed to Tolbert and others. CeeDee Lamb and tight end Jake Ferguson will likely continue to rank as quarterback Dak Prescott's preferred options in the passing game, but with none of the team's running backs representing major receiving threats, Tolbert could emerge as the clear No. 3 target sans Cooks.

Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Three catches in win
Tolbert brought in all three targets for 24 yards in the Cowboys' 20-15 win over the Giants on Thursday night.
Tolbert was a distant third to CeeDee Lamb and Jake Ferguson in the pass-catching hierarchy, but he notably recorded two more receptions and eight more yards than No. 2 receiver Brandin Cooks. Tolbert now has more receptions and receiving yards than Cooks in three straight games, while the former's 17 targets over that span also notably outpace the latter's 12 in the same span. It remains to be seen if there will be any official depth chart swap between the two wideouts, but either way, Tolbert figures to have a modest but reliable role in a Week 5 road matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Oct. 6.

Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Hauls in first TD of season
Tolbert caught three of five targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Ravens.
The third-year wideout was on the other end of Dak Prescott's first TD pass of the game, a 15-yard strike midway through the fourth quarter as the Cowboys tried to rally from a 28-6 deficit. Tolbert has out-produced Brandin Cooks in back-to-back games, and through three weeks the younger player has a 10-136-1 line on 16 targets compared to Cooks' 8-75-1 line on 15 targets. Tolbert could continue to push for the team's No. 2 receiver role Week 4 against the Giants.

Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Career-best performance in loss
Tolbert caught six of nine targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 44-19 loss to the Saints.
The third-year wideout led the Cowboys in targets on the afternoon, and his receptions and yardage were both career highs. Tolbert had a quiet performance in the team's opener, but his usage Sunday dwarfed Brandin Cooks, who saw only two targets, and is a good sign that the 2022 third-round pick could be headed for a breakout campaign. Tolbert will attempt to build on this effort in Week 3 against the Ravens.
