Jake Ferguson on the Rise Following Bounce-Back Season in 2025

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson didn't have much of a chance in 2024 after quarterback Dak Prescott's season-ending hamstring injury, finishing his third year in the NFL with 59 catches, 494 yards, and zero touchdowns in 14 starts. Ferguson was able to bounce back in 2025, though, with a career-high 82 receptions on 102 targets for 600 yards and a career-high eight touchdowns in 17 contests. It wasn't all great for the 27-year-old, though, as he didn't go over 20 receiving yards in any of his final four games while also finishing with a career-low 7.3 yards per catch. All in all, it was a successful fourth year in the NFL. Ferguson was the TE7 in half-PPR scoring, and he will be a no-doubt TE1 target in fantasy football drafts this fall as the top pass-catching tight end in the Cowboys' high-scoring offense. Despite receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens seeing their fair share of targets, Ferguson was one of only eight TEs who saw over 100 targets in 2025.

Jake Ferguson a Volatile TE Streamer in Week 18

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) has been removed from the Week 18 injury report and will play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the division-rival New York Giants. Ferguson didn't practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday, and upgraded to a full practice on Friday. The 26-year-old will be active this weekend, but after not finishing last week's Christmas Day win over the Washington Commanders, the Cowboys probably are in no hurry to play Ferguson the same as they normally would in a meaningless game. Fantasy managers should consider him to be a very volatile streaming option at the position, especially since quarterback Dak Prescott might not play a full game. Ferguson was a big part of Dallas' high-scoring offense in 2025, setting career-highs in catches (81) and touchdown receptions (eight) while racking up 595 receiving yards in 16 games.

Jake Ferguson Ruled Out with Calf Issue

ESPN's Todd Archer reports that Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) has been ruled out for the remainder of the game after sustaining a calf injury. He caught 1-of-2 targets for six yards and a touchdown before exiting the contest. Ferguson saw his last opportunity of the outing early in the second quarter, but did not rejoin his team coming out of halftime. With the 26-year-old deemed out, fellow tight end Luke Schoonmaker will operate as the Cowboys' No. 1 option at the position. Brevyn Spann-Ford will mix in behind him. Fantasy managers can also expect a modest uptick in work for wide receivers George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb while Ferguson is sidelined.

Jake Ferguson Looking to Rebound Against Commanders on Christmas

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson hasn't scored in five straight weeks and is coming off two of his four lowest yardage totals in the past two weeks. Ferguson was remarkably consistent for most of the season leading up to Week 15, catching at least four passes in 11 of the first 13 games and at least five in 10 of those contests. The 26-year-old tight end hasn't been as productive with CeeDee Lamb back in the lineup and has become dependent on finding the end zone, which he has only done once since scoring twice against the Washington Commanders in Week 7. He'll look to bounce back this week as he faces Washington again on Christmas Day. The Commanders' defense has been bad in all facets, including against tight ends, allowing the third-most PPR points per game. Ferguson can be trusted as a mid-range TE1, ranking as RotoBaller's TE8 in PPR leagues in Week 17.

Jake Ferguson Ranks as Borderline TE1 Against Chargers

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson has cooled off in the second half of the season after ranking as the TE1 in Weeks 1 through 9. Ferguson caught just two of four targets for 16 yards in last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings and hasn't scored in four consecutive games, his longest drought of the season. The 26-year-old draws another tough matchup on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers, who have held opponents under 20 points in three straight games. The Chargers are giving up the fifth-fewest receptions and seventh-fewest PPR points per game to tight ends. Ferguson has fallen to TE14 in RotoBaller's rankings for the second round of the fantasy playoffs.

Jake Ferguson Officially Active for Sunday Night

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) is officially available for Sunday night's match against the Minnesota Vikings. The top tight end carried a questionable tag on Friday's final injury report. On Thursday, he was unable to practice but returned on Friday in a limited capacity. However, he was able to progress enough to suit up. After a hot start to the season, when he averaged an impressive 17.2 PPR points per game over the first seven weeks, Ferguson has seen his production take a massive step back, averaging just 8.7 PPR points from Weeks 8 through 14. This evening, he will face a Minnesota secondary that has allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing TEs this season. He projects to be a low-end TE1 in standard formats and is a viable play in DFS showdown slates.

Jake Ferguson Expected to Play in Week 15

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) is questionable for Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. According to Ian Rapoport, Ferguson is expected to suit up despite the calf issue. Ferguson has been limited in practice while dealing with his nagging calf problem. It doesn't seem serious enough to keep him out of this game, but the Cowboys might wait to see how Ferguson feels closer to gametime. If healthy, Ferguson should be considered a locked-in TE1 for this game. Otherwise, Luke Schoonmaker would see an expanded role, but he wouldn't be a recommended streaming option even in a starting role.

Jake Ferguson Carries Low-End TE1 Value if Cleared to Play in Week 15

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) carries a questionable tag into Sunday night's contest against the Minnesota Vikings and would be viewed as a low-end TE1 if cleared for action. Ferguson opened the week as a limited participant but was downgraded to a non-participant on Thursday, putting his availability in jeopardy. However, on Friday, the veteran tight end was able to practice in a limited capacity, which keeps him in play to suit up. Additionally, Todd Archer of ESPN reported that HC Brian Schottenheimer said he is "relieved" that Ferguson was able to "answer the bell" on Friday, suggesting he should be in a good position to play. From Weeks 1 through 7, Ferguson was on pace to compete for the overall TE1, as he averaged an elite 17.2 PPR points per game and found the back of the end zone six times. However, since Week 8, Ferguson's production has dropped considerably, averaging only 8.7 PPR points per game. During this stretch, he has scored just one touchdown. Even though Ferguson's production has continued to decline, managers should still view him as a reliable low-end TE1 given his elite offensive environment. He should be primed for a bounce-back in a projected high-scoring affair (O/U 48.5) against the Vikings on Sunday evening.

Jake Ferguson Listed as Questionable for Week 15

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) returned to a limited practice on Friday and is considered questionable for the Sunday night game against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15, according to Adam Caplan of Sirius XM NFL Radio. Ferguson was limited in Wednesday's practice before being downgraded to a DNP on Thursday, raising concerns about his status for this weekend. Executive vice president Stephen Jones said on Friday that the Cowboys fully expect the 26-year-old tight end to be available on Sunday night, so fantasy managers should leave him in their starting lineups. Dallas is expected to have receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) available in Week 15 as well. Ferguson has been a must-start fantasy TE in 2025, with 75 catches on 90 targets for 554 yards and seven touchdowns in his 13 games played.

Jake Ferguson on Track to Play in Week 15

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said that tight end Jake Ferguson (calf) will be able to play in Week 15 against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night, per ESPN's Todd Archer. Ferguson was held out of Cowboys practice on Thursday due to a calf issue. Across 13 games this season, the 26-year-old has hauled in 75 receptions for 554 yards and seven touchdowns on 90 targets. While he's not the most explosive player, Ferguson has earned at least six targets and recorded at least five catches in four out of his last five games played. He profiles as a low-end starter at the tight end position for fantasy managers in Week 15.
