Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said he really thinks WR Ryan Flournoy “is taking the next step.”

09 June 2026

Schottenheimer believes the 2024 sixth-round pick “has a chance to be a terrific receiver in this league.” He currently projects as the Cowboys’ WR3 and will likely carry that distinction into the regular season. Flournoy is a worthwhile best ball pick right now, but it remains to be seen whether he will warrant consideration in 12-team re-draft leagues late in August. Flournoy posted a 40/475/4 receiving line last season, while upping his yards per route run average from 1.06 to 174. It will be difficult for him to be anything more than a volatile WR5/WR6, but he will deliver a few spiked weeks.
