Where will Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle spend most of his time during the upcoming NFL season?
Of course, most assume that Ezekiel Elliot, followed by a band of others, will lead the Cowboys' rushing attack. One of those players in the band will be fourth-year running back Rico Dowdle.
Dowdle has spent a majority of his time on special teams in recent years, but that should change moving forward.Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy discussed Dowdle's role for the upcoming season and he expects the versatile back to be much more involved in the offense. “He’ll have a lesser role in special teams, just because of workload focus.

I think his pass protection from his rookie year to now has become one of his best assets.”"He’ll have a lesser role in special teams, just because of workload focus.
