Dallas Activates Sean Lee, Chidobe Awuzie From Injured Reserve rotoballer.com Thu 10/22/20 6:45 PM

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hernia) and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring) have both been designated to come off of Injured Reserve as soon as this Sunday versus Washington. Lee has yet to suit up for the Cowboys Defense in 2020, having been sidelined due to a sports hernia. Awuzie played in two games, collecting an interception before hitting the IR. The eventual return of both players will be a boon for a defense that has struggled mightily this season. Even with a favorable matchup...

Cowboys Defense Loses Sean Lee For Six Weeks rotoballer.com Wed 9/16/20 12:53 PM

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hernia) is expected to be out for six weeks after having hernia surgery last week in Philadelphia with specialist Dr. William Meyers, according to sources. Lee began the season on Injured Reserve and now may not return until mid-October. It's especially notable after Leighton Vander Esch broke his collarbone in the Week 1 loss to the Rams on Sunday night. The injuries to the middle of Dallas' defense will put more responsibility on both Jaylon Smith and Aldon ...

Cowboys Re-Signing Sean Lee rotoballer.com Tue 3/17/20 6:42 PM

The Dallas Cowboys re-signed linebacker Sean Lee to a one-year, $4.5 million deal on Tuesday. The deal includes $2 million in guaranteed money. Lee was a second-round draft pick of the Cowboys back in 2010, so he'll remain with the only organization that he's called home. The oft-injured 33-year-old managed to stay healthy for all 16 games in 2019 for the first time in his career, making 13 starts and adding 86 tackles (55 solo), four tackles for loss, one interception, one sack and four passes ...

Sean Lee Expected To Return In 2020 rotoballer.com Wed 2/26/20 10:14 AM

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee is expected to return to the team in 2020. Lee played in a full season for the first time of his career and saw considerable playing time in the second half of the season with Leighton Vander Esch (neck) injured, recording 86 tackles (55 solo), one sack and one interception. Lee will be more of a backup with the Cowboys if Vander Esch is fully healthy next season, but he'd provide valuable veteran depth in the middle of the field if he comes back. The ...

Sean Lee Likely To Return For Another Season rotoballer.com Fri 2/7/20 1:21 PM

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee is likely to return for an 11th NFL season in 2020. The oft-injured Lee managed to play a full 16 games last year for the first time in his career, and it was huge for the Cowboys with Leighton Vander Esch missing time with a neck ailment to finish the season. Lee will turn 34 in July and is scheduled to become a free agent in March. He plans to make a decision in the next five weeks on whether he'll return for another season, but it's hard to imagine Lee ...

Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 10 (Top 100) rotoballer.com Fri 11/8/19 1:16 PM

Hopefully you weren't burned by the last-minute scratch of Leighton Vander Esch last week. We'll omit him from this week's rankings until we know for sure his neck issues won't keep him out again. His absence allowed Sean Lee to look like his old self, racking up 12 tackles (nine solo), with one for loss and a pass defended. With six teams on bye, Lee becomes an intriguing option that is barely owned because of his own injury history but he is also questionable with a pec injury heading into ...

Sean Lee Injured, Again, in Cowboys Practice rotoballer.com Tue 7/30/19 5:31 PM

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee suffered a knee injury in Monday's practice. Reports state that Lee won't need surgery and may have avoided a serious injury, but with his previous injury history, any little thing could be enough to make Lee miss several games.

Sean Lee To Reclaim Starting Job rotoballer.com Tue 12/4/18 12:40 PM

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) will reclaim his starting role when he's healthy enough to return. Linebackers Leighton Vander Esch and Jaylon Smith have excelled in Lee's absence, but Lee will remain a starter when he's ready to return. However, given his injury-prone ways, the Cowboys may choose to limit Lee's snaps as they attempt to make the playoffs.

Cowboys Defense Not a Great Option for a Week 10 Lineup rotoballer.com Fri 11/9/18 12:18 PM

The Dallas Cowboys defense is not a great option for a fantasy lineup in a Week 10 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles. With Sean Lee (hamstring) out in a divisional rivalry game, the Eagles should be able to move the ball with ease on Sunday. Their offensive line protects quarterback Carson Wentz well, so there isn't much sack upside with the Cowboys defense either. They are best avoided this week, as there are likely better streaming options available in most leagues.
