Lions dancing tight end Joseph Fauria leads all NFL rookies with five touchdowns as he enters Week 8 at home against Dallas. Fantasy owners hope he keeps dancing on Sunday.

His matchup against the Cowboys suggests he can. Fauria, who has needed just four games to reach five TDs and didn't score last week against Cincinnati with just one catch for 15 yards, is facing a team allowing the fourth-most Fantasy points per game to opposing TEs on the year.

The Cowboys have allowed 47 receptions to the tight end position, second-most in the league behind only Chicago. Denver's Julius Thomas went for nine grabs for 122 yards and two scores against them back in Week 5. That said, Dallas has been tougher on TEs in recent weeks.

We can't promise Fauria will go for a lot of yardage on Sunday, but you can expect a few red zone targets at the least. He's a low-end No. 1 or high-end No. 2 Fantasy TE for Week 8.
