Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Austin has a history of hamstring injuries and does extra stretching in an attempt to prevent them from reoccurring. Indeed, ESPN.com's Calvin Watkins notes the Cowboys have gone to great lengths to prevent these injuries during training camp and regular-season practices, from monitoring how much running a player does with an electric device, to limiting snaps in practice to keep players fresh. Austin endured hamstring injuries all of last season but still finished with 66 catches for 943 yards and six touchdowns.
