2025 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 third-round pick, Tolbert has seen his role grow with each passing season, taking 89 snaps in 2022, 477 snaps in 2023 and then 892 snaps last year. His per-route and per-target numbers were similar the past two seasons, but with twice as many routes in 2024 as in 2023, and scoring seven touchdowns instead of two. While CeeDee Lamb's injury absences were part of that equation, Tolbert at least proved himself capable as a No. 3/4 receiver, which figures to be his role again after the Cowboys acquired George Pickens in May. Tolbert is a clear favorite for the No. 3 WR job, with speedy return man KaVontae Turpin representing the most likely form of competition. Read Past Outlooks

September 28, 2025
Tolbert brought in four of six targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 40-40 overtime tie against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Dallas' coaching staff singled out Tolbert as a player that needed to step up in the absence of CeeDee Lamb (ankle). The 26-year-old wideout answered the call and surpassed his entire receiving production through three weeks in Sunday's contest. Tolbert finished third in targets and receptions for the Cowboys in Week 4, giving him deep-league appeal for next Sunday's tilt against the Jets.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
As a rookie in 2022, Tolbert was a hot name in the preseason. He followed that up by catching two passes for 12 yards all season. Last year, Tolbert saw his role increase. The receiver frequently played between 23 and 30 snaps. Tolbert was also targeted between three and five times in seven games. Despite seeing opportunity, he ended the season with 268 yards. With Michael Gallup no longer with the team, Tolbert could become an every-down player. It’s reasonable to predict a third-year breakout for the receiver.
A 2022 third-round pick out of South Alabama, Tolbert was viewed as a raw prospect whose skills needed to catch up to his athleticism. That didn't happen in his rookie season, as, despite the early season absence of Michael Gallup, Tolbert didn't play in the first two games and fell out of the wideout rotation for good after Week 12. Gallup will be further removed from his knee injury this year, and the Cowboys traded for Brandin Cooks in the offseason, so there's no clear path to a regular role for Tolbert in 2023 even if he does take a step forward in his development.
A 2022 third-round pick out of South Alabama, Tolbert's small-school background may have caused him to slip a bit in a WR-heavy draft class, but he offers the skills and athleticism to make an impact in the NFL. The 23-year-old has the route-running skills to play inside or outside, and while his polish and focus could stand to improve, his huge numbers as a senior in college highlight his potential. With Michael Gallup (ACL) and James Washington (foot) likely to miss the beginning of the season, Tolbert could see significant snaps right out of the gate for the Cowboys.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
More space with Pickens blanketed?
WRDallas Cowboys
October 4, 2025
Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site believes that George Pickens will be shadowed by Sauce Gardner during Sunday's game against the Jets, which could lead to Tolbert getting more looks from Dak Prescott in the passing game.
ANALYSIS
Tolbert is coming off his best performance of the season, when he caught four passes on six targets for 61 yards during the Cowboys' Week 4 tie to the Packers. The fourth-year wideout should continue to see more targets for as long as CeeDee Lamb is out due to an ankle injury, but Tolbert could be relied on even more against the Jets if Gardner travels with Pickens. Tolbert's presence will be even more important Sunday given that speedy wideout KaVontae Turpin has been ruled out due to a foot injury.
