2025 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 third-round pick, Tolbert has seen his role grow with each passing season, taking 89 snaps in 2022, 477 snaps in 2023 and then 892 snaps last year. His per-route and per-target numbers were similar the past two seasons, but with twice as many routes in 2024 as in 2023, and scoring seven touchdowns instead of two. While CeeDee Lamb's injury absences were part of that equation, Tolbert at least proved himself capable as a No. 3/4 receiver, which figures to be his role again after the Cowboys acquired George Pickens in May. Tolbert is a clear favorite for the No. 3 WR job, with speedy return man KaVontae Turpin representing the most likely form of competition. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a four-year, $5.14 million contract with the Cowboys in May of 2022.
Blanked in Week 5
Tolbert failed to catch his only target in Sunday's win over the Jets.
ANALYSIS
With WRs CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (foot) both unavailable, the door was open for Tolbert to take on a much bigger role in the Cowboys' passing game, but it was Ryan Flournoy who walked through it instead. While Tolbert couldn't get any attention from QB Dak Prescott, Flournoy led the team in receiving yards, posting a 6-114-0 line on nine targets. Tolbert did play more offensive snaps than Flournoy, 46-34, but that's small comfort to fantasy GMs who took a flyer on him. Even if Lamb and Turpin remain out Week 6 against the Panthers, Tolbert can't be relied upon.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
As a rookie in 2022, Tolbert was a hot name in the preseason. He followed that up by catching two passes for 12 yards all season. Last year, Tolbert saw his role increase. The receiver frequently played between 23 and 30 snaps. Tolbert was also targeted between three and five times in seven games. Despite seeing opportunity, he ended the season with 268 yards. With Michael Gallup no longer with the team, Tolbert could become an every-down player. It’s reasonable to predict a third-year breakout for the receiver.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
More space with Pickens blanketed?
Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site believes that George Pickens will be shadowed by Sauce Gardner during Sunday's game against the Jets, which could lead to Tolbert getting more looks from Dak Prescott in the passing game.
ANALYSIS
Tolbert is coming off his best performance of the season, when he caught four passes on six targets for 61 yards during the Cowboys' Week 4 tie to the Packers. The fourth-year wideout should continue to see more targets for as long as CeeDee Lamb is out due to an ankle injury, but Tolbert could be relied on even more against the Jets if Gardner travels with Pickens. Tolbert's presence will be even more important Sunday given that speedy wideout KaVontae Turpin has been ruled out due to a foot injury.
