        Jake Ferguson Exits With Calf Injury

        Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson was knocked out in the first half of Thursday's game vs. the Commanders with a calf injury. He caught one of two targets for a six-yard TD before exiting. Ferguson's absence left Dallas' TE room to Luke Schoonmaker and Brevyn Spann-Ford. It'll be a situation to avoid in fantasy lineups if Ferguson misses next weekend's finale vs. the Giants.

        Jake Ferguson Sidelined Thursday

        Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (calf) followed a limited practice on Wednesday with no practice on Thursday. It now looks like he hurt his calf in Wednesday's practice, although we don't have confirmation on that. We'll see if Ferguson practices tomorrow and how he's listed on the final injury report for Sunday night's game vs. the Vikings. His absence would leave TE duties to Luke Schoonmaker and Brevyn Spann-Ford -- but neither would be a bankable fantasy start.

        Jake Ferguson Doubtful for Week 2

        After suffering a bone bruise and MCL sprain, Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson is officially doubtful for Week 2. It was unlikely that he would play so soon after the injury, but there was some optimism around his potential to play through the injury. After not practicing all week, it is very very unlikely that Ferguson suits up.

        Could Jake Ferguson Play Week 2?

        Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday that he's "optimistic" about TE Jake Ferguson's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Saints. Ferguson was diagnosed with an MCL sprain, and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said he'd "miss time." But it sounds like the injury might be less severe than initially thought. We'll keep an eye on Ferguson's status throughout this week.

        Jake Ferguson, TE1

        Per The Athletic’s Saad Yousuf, Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson “has done nothing that would cause him to relinquish” the starting job. Rookie Luke Schoonmaker has enjoyed “some solid moments” since returning from a foot injury, but a big early-season role isn’t likely. Consider Ferguson a deep sleeper to star on your fantasy cheat sheet.

        Luke Schoonmaker still out with foot injury

        The Cowboys placed TE Luke Schoonmaker on the non-football injury list. He's still dealing with the plantar fasciitis that sidelined him for much of the spring. Schoonmaker landed in a wide-open Cowboys TE corps. But the missed practice time doesn't bode well for his chances of carving out an early-season role. TE Jake Ferguson is probably the better bet for production out of the gate.

        Schoonmaker dealing with foot injury

        Per ESPN’s Todd Archer, Cowboys TE Luke Schoonmaker is dealing with a case of plantar fasciitis. He was seen wearing a protective boot on his right foot at OTAs. The Round 2 pick enters the summer looking to earn snaps for a Cowboys squad now without Dalton Schultz.
