Cooper caught six of nine targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 30-22 loss to the Rams.

Cooper broke free for a 29-yard catch and scamper for a touchdown in the first quarter, but he spent the rest of the contest dealing with Rams top corner Aqib Talib along with additional safety help. The extra attention allowed fellow wideout Michael Gallup to go off for 119 yards, but it resulted in Cooper posting a stat line that may have left DFS owners wanting a bit more considering some of the big totals he has posted since coming to Dallas. Either way, it looks like the 24-year-old will be the focal point of the Cowboys' passing attack in 2019.

Woods hauled in six of eight targets, collecting 69 receiving yards during Saturday's 30-22 win against the Cowboys.

Woods was the Rams' most reliable pass catcher throughout the regular season, putting up 14 consecutive showings with five receptions or 70 receiving yards between Weeks 2 and 16 before being held to two catches for 24 yards in the finale against San Francisco. He got back to his typical form in the divisional round against Dallas' No. 13 pass defense, garnering a team-high eight targets and pacing the Rams in receiving output for the eighth time this season. Woods figures to be an intriguing DFS play in the NFC Championship Game against either the Saints or Eagles, the NFL's 32nd- and 31st-ranked teams in terms of receiving yards allowed to opposing wideouts.

Hill caught eight of 13 targets for 72 yards and added a 36-yard touchdown run during Saturday's 31-13 win over the Colts.

Talk about soul-crushing. Right after Damien Williams extended the Chiefs' second drive of the game with an 11-yard run on fourth and short, Hill made the defense look silly on a 36-yard end-around in which the defense appeared to be tracking the speedster in slow motion. Hill also contributed a handful of clutch catches to move the chains as he continued his season-long evolution into a complete player. No matter whether the Chiefs take on the Patriots or Chargers in the AFC Championship Game, Hill figures to have a great matchup. Hill nabbed a combined 18 of 27 targets for 357 yards and five touchdowns in three games against New England and Los Angeles this season, though the Chargers did more or less get the best of him during their Week 15 divisional showdown.

Beasley (ankle) is listed as active Saturday against the Rams, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Upon completion of a pregame warmup that included work on resistance cords -- per Jon Machota of The Dallas Morning News -- Beasley has been given clearance to play through a high-ankle sprain from the Cowboys' training staff. Beasley handled 41 percent of the offensive snaps in the wild-card victory versus the Seahawks, but it remains to be seen if he can approach that number this weekend. Consequently, fellow wideouts Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup and even Noah Brown are better bets to be on the receiving end of passes from Dak Prescott.

Cobbs (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Brett Martel of the Associated Press reports.

Cobbs was signed by the Saints in mid-December but was never active for a game, and had recently been dealing with the knee issue. The team signed tight end Garrett Griffin to replace him on the 53-man roster.

Beasley (ankle) is expected to be active for Saturday's divisional-round game versus the Rams, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.

The Cowboys won't make it official until they release their list of inactives 90 minutes before Saturday's 8:15 PM ET kickoff, but Beasley is poised to play through a high-ankle sprain for a second straight contest.

Beasley (ankle) will take part in a pregame warmup with an expectation that he'll be active for Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Beasley predictably didn't practice this week due to a high-ankle sprain suffered in a wild-card win against the Seahawks. That said, if he shows well enough in the aforementioned workout, he's expected to miss the inactive list for the Cowboys' second outing of this postseason. In the end, it's difficult to forecast his workload, which was a season-low 41 percent of the team's offensive snaps last weekend.

Cobbs (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Eagles, Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

Cobbs has not been active for the Saints since joining the team in mid-December, and he is now nursing a knee injury of undisclosed severity. New Orleans' offense won't be impacted by the undrafted rookie's absence.

Gibson (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Saints.

Gibson was added to Friday's injury report as a limited participant in practice. The second-year wideout has not played an offensive snap since Week 13 of the regular season, and he'll see most of his action as the Eagles' top kick returner if he's able to suit up versus New Orleans.

Beasley (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Rams, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Beasley was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain in the aftermath of the Cowboys' wild-card win against the Seahawks, so it's easy to see why he didn't practice this week. His upcoming availability is more difficult to predict, with Helman suggesting Beasley will be a game-time decision. Earlier this week, owner and general manager Jerry Jones expressed confidence that Beasley will play this weekend, but such a call won't be made until 90 minutes before Saturday's 8:15 PM ET kickoff.
