• Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Not in uniform Saturday

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Ferguson isn't suited up for Saturday's preseason contest against the Seahawks, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Coach Brian Schottenheimer said in early August that the Cowboys' starters won't play during the preseason, so Ferguson's absence from the opener Saturday isn't a concern. The veteran pass catcher is slated to resume his role as Dallas' top tight end in 2026 after notching a career-high 82 receptions (on 102 targets) for 600 yards and a career-best eight touchdowns over 17 regular-season games last year. Dallas' tight-end corps will be rounded out by Brevyn Spann-Ford and Luke Schoonmaker, among others.

• Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Still Dallas' clear TE1

  Ferguson remains the Cowboys' unquestioned starting tight end ahead of training camp, Chris Amaya of ExpressNews.com reports. Ferguson signed a four-year, $50 million extension with Dallas last offseason, so the 27-year-old remains positioned as Dak Prescott's top target at the tight end position for the foreseeable future. He caught 82 passes for 600 yards and eight touchdowns while suiting up for all 17 regular-season games last year, giving him a steady fantasy floor through volume and red-zone usage. It's worth noting, though, that Ferguson's average depth of catch has dropped in three consecutive seasons, from 10.7 yards in 2023 to 8.4 in 2024, then just 7.3 yards per catch in 2025.

• Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: One catch in season finale

  01/05/2026 • By RotoWire

  Ferguson caught one of two targets for five yards in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Giants. Ferguson was able to play in Week 18 after opening the week limited at practice with a calf issue, but he was limited to just one catch for the second straight week. The tight end sputtered into the finish line this season, failing to reach 20 receiving yards in each of his final four contests. Ferguson completed his fourth campaign in Dallas having reeled in a career-high 82 passes on 102 targets for 600 yards and eight touchdowns over 17 regular-season contests, and he'll likely enter next year as the team's undisputed No. 1 tight end.

  Ferguson (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Ferguson didn't finish last week's game but will be available for the season finale after upgrading to full practice participation Friday. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones noted that the team could remove key veterans at some point Sunday, but there hasn't been any hint of that from the coaching staff.

• Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Limited Thursday

  01/01/2026 • By RotoWire

  Ferguson (calf) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. After spending Wednesday's session on the side working with trainers, Ferguson showed some progress with the calf injury that knocked him out for the second half of last Thursday's win at Washington. It's unclear yet if he's in danger of missing Sunday's game at the Giants, but he's put together a modest 25-211-2 line on 34 targets in seven contests since the Cowboys' Week 10 bye.
