Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Leads team in rushing Friday
Vaughn carried the ball 10 times for 42 yards and added 22 yards on one kickoff return in Friday's 31-13 preseason win over the Falcons.
The 2023 sixth-round pick got the start for Dallas and gained most of his yardage on the team's opening drive, as he helped set up a one-yard TD run for Joe Milton. Miles Sanders (shoulder) was held out of the contest and Jaydon Blue left the game in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury, so Vaughn's solid performance may prove to be timely as he tries to win a spot in the backfield behind presumed Week 1 starter Javonte Williams.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Follows Sanders in preseason loss
Vaughn rushed the ball five times for 11 yards in Saturday's 31-13 preseason loss to the Ravens. He added one reception on one target for seven yards.
Vaughn had risen up the depth chart in Dallas with Jaydon Blue (heel) and Miles Sanders both sidelined. However, Sanders returned to practice this week and started Saturday's contest ahead of Vaughn. Depending on the severity of Blue's injury, Vaughn could enter the regular season third on the depth chart, but regular touches in the offense don't appear likely barring additional injuries.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Getting first-team reps
Vaughn worked with the first-team offense during practice Tuesday, Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News reports.
The undersized back showed his usual elusiveness, but Vaughn heads into his third NFL season having yet to make much of an impact with his rare touches in game action. He's getting opportunities with the first team while rookie Jaydon Blue (heel) is sidelined, but Vaughn faces an uphill battle to even have a spot on the 53-man roster with Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders also ahead of him on the depth chart, and 2025 seventh-round pick Phil Mafah looking good in camp as well.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Resumes practicing Thursday
Vaughn (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Vaughn's return to practice should pave the way for him to suit up in Saturday's preseason opener against the Rams. He's vying for a depth role in a Dallas backfield that also includes Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders (knee), Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah. Vaughn is the only member of that group that was with the Cowboys last season.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Expected to return soon
Vaughn (hamstring) is expected to return to practice this week, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Vaughn has been sidelined at practice with a hamstring injury, but he may be nearing a return to action. The running back is expected to operate as a depth option behind Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders this season, likely making his greatest impact on special teams.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Season-high six carries in Week 18
Vaughn carried the ball six times for 37 yards in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Commanders.
In a meaningless game for the Cowboys, Vaughn saw a season-high workload and delivered a career high in rushing yards. The 2023 sixth-round pick appeared in only seven games this season and managed just 88 yards from scrimmage on 20 touches, once again serving as a depth option in the backfield. Rico Dowdle will be a free agent this offseason and may have priced himself out of Dallas' plans with a strong campaign, but it's highly unlikely Vaughn will head into 2025 at the top of the depth chart.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Healthy scratch Sunday
Vaughn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
The 2023 sixth-round pick finds himself as the third man on the depth chart behind Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott. Vaughn has not played in a game since Week 11 against Houston. He has 11 carries for 33 yards and no touchdowns this season.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Not playing Week 12
Vaughn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Vaughn will be a healthy scratch for the second time in the past three weeks, leaving Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott to handle the work in Dallas' backfield along with fullback Hunter Luepke. Vaughn has been inefficient as a ball carrier in his limited opportunities this season, gaining just 33 yards on 11 carries while adding 18 yards on three receptions.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Minimal production against Houston
Vaughn rushed four times for 13 yards and caught one of his two targets for four yards in Monday's 34-10 loss to the Texans.
Vaughn played just 16 of the Cowboys' 83 offensive snaps in the contest, the fewest of any Dallas running back behind both Rico Dowdle (41) and Ezekiel Elliott (26). The 23-year-old Kansas State product has not been involved in the offense much in 2024, recording just 11 rushing attempts for 33 yards and three catches for 18 yards. Buried on the depth chart behind Dowdle and Elliott on an offense that is struggling to run the ball effectively, Vaughn should not be in consideration for fantasy purposes as the Cowboys head into a Week 12 matchup with the Commanders.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Inactive for Week 10
Vaughn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Philadelphia.
Vaughn played three snaps on special teams in Week 9 against the Falcons. With Vaughn a healthy scratch Sunday, Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott will be the Cowboys' two options out of the backfield.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Won't play Week 5
Vaughn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Vaughn has seen minimal work over the first four games of the regular season. He will be a healthy inactive Sunday as the Cowboys go with Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott as their only two active running backs.

Cowboys' Deuce Vaughn: Shut out of game plan Thursday
Vaughn didn't see a touch and got only three snaps on offense in Thursday's win over the Giants.
The 2023 sixth-round pick continues to be a distant third in the Dallas backfield hierarchy behind Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott, and Vaughn failed to touch the ball in Week 4 for the first time all season. With Dalvin Cook stashed on the practice squad and the Cowboys getting little production from their running game, Vaughn's hold on a 53-man roster spot appears tenuous at best.
