Jalen Tolbert

Jalen Tolbert caught 7-of-10 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in the Cowboys’ Week 5 win over the Steelers.

Tolbert led the team in both targets and receiving yards on a night CeeDee lamb was blanketed by Joey Porter. He was injured late in the fourth quarter, eventually forcing the Cowboys to take a timeout before a first-and-goal from the four. He eventually gutted it out and did not miss a play, scoring the game-winning touchdown on fourth-and-goal from four yards out after a Rico Dowdle fumble at the goal line was recovered by quarterback Dak Prescott. The production was particularly encouraging considering it was the first game since the team placed wide receiver Brandin Cooks on injured reserve with an infection in his knee. Tolbert is likely to be busy in Week 6 when the Cowboys host a Lions team fresh off their bye.
