McFadden is not practicing Friday due to illness, Brandon George of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

McFadden's illness couldn't come at a worse time, as he is expected to receive the bulk of the Cowboys' running back duties once starter Ezekiel Elliot is pulled Sunday. While he still has time to get healthy prior to kickoff, McFadden runs the risk of losing snaps to Alfred Morris and Lance Dunbar if his sickness doesn't subside. As a result, fantasy owners will need to keep an eye on McFadden's condition before cementing their Week 17 outlook of him.
