Jake Ferguson's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson is one of the top tight end options heading into Week 4 after a strong return game in Week 3 where he caught six passes for 95 yards. With how poorly the tight end position has started off this season, Ferguson is a no-brainer start in a Thursday night matchup with the New York Giants. Dallas has shown that they will lean on the passing game this season, and with Ferguson being one of the top options for quarterback Dak Prescott, he grades as a high-end TE1 ahead of the game.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson returned to the lineup on Sunday after a one-week absence. His impact was instantly felt, as he led the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in the loss to Baltimore. Ferguson was targeted 11 times, securing six catches for 95 yards. With how poor tight end play has been this season, Ferguson's outing was encouraging for fantasy managers. He should remain a top option at the position going into Thursday night's game with the New York Giants.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (knee) is off Friday's injury report and set to return on Sunday when the Cowboys play host to the Baltimore Ravens. Ferguson was held out of last week's game due to an MCL sprain. Fantasy managers should feel comfortable putting Ferguson back in their lineup, as he recorded two limited practice sessions earlier this week and a full session on Friday. In the season-opener, the 25-year-old caught three of his five targets for a mere 15 yards. However, the young tight end emerged as the No.2 pass-catching option in the Dallas offense by tallying 761 yards and five scores on 71 receptions. Ferguson should be viewed as a low-end TE1 going forward, given the stable volume he should see weekly.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (knee) practiced again on Thursday following a limited practice on Wednesday due to a knee injury. It appears the third-year pro out of Wisconsin has a real chance to play in Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens after missing the Week 2 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Ferguson was considered a sleeper candidate to finish as high-end TE1 this season, which remains a possibility if he can get back to action. The Ravens gave up nine receptions for 98 yards last week to rookie tight end Brock Bowers, so Ferguson could be in line for fantasy success if he starts and his knee isn't limiting his mobility. Ravens star safety Kyle Hamilton (back) is banged up heading into Week 3, which is good news for Ferguson's fantasy prospects.UPDATE: Ferguson was limited again on Thursday.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (knee) was seen at practice today and participated in a limited capacity. This is a great sign for the 25-year-old who missed last week's game due to an MCL sprain. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Ferguson's status heading into the weekend, but this is a promising sign that the Wisconsin product could return to the field on Sunday. In the season opener, Ferguson caught only three of his five targets for a mere 15 yards. However, he was a focal point of the Dallas offense last season and should be started in all standard leagues if he suits up. If Ferguson misses Sunday's game, Luke Schoonmaker will once again slot in as the No.1 tight end in Dallas and could be a solid TE2 given the six targets he saw in Week 2.
