OCTOBER 17, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Scores first NFL TD Ferguson caught four of six targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

Impact The rookie tight end recorded his first NFL score early in the fourth quarter, catching a short pass from Cooper Rush and making a slick move around a Philadelphia defender to get into the end zone. The catches, targets and yards were also career highs for Ferguson, but his run of deep-league fantasy relevance will likely come to an end once Dalton Schultz (knee) is 100 percent.

Playing Sunday Ferguson (knee) is active Sunday against the Rams, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ferguson came into the day questionable after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday. He should operate as the Cowboys' No. 2 tight end against the Rams.

Listed as questionable for Sunday Ferguson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact Ferguson logged back-to-back limited sessions after not practicing Wednesday due to a knee injury. If he's unable to suit up, Peyton Hendershot would operate as the primary backup to Dalton Schultz, who returned to action in Week 4 after sitting out the previous contest due to an MCL sprain.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sees limited work Thursday Ferguson (knee) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ferguson failed to practice Wednesday due to an apparent knee issue, but his ability to participate during Thursday's session in a limited fashion is a step in the right direction. Friday's practice/injury report should provide further clarity regarding the rookie tight end's availability for Sunday's contest against the Rams, but Dalton Schultz and Peyton Hendershot would presumably take on larger roles if Ferguson is eventually ruled out.

OCTOBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined Wednesday Ferguson did not practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Ferguson appears to have picked up a knee injury after catching his lone target for seven yards during Sunday's win over the Commanders. The rookie tight end played his second lowest percentage of Dallas' offensive snaps this season in Week 4, though it's unclear exactly when this issue popped up. If Ferguson's health does not improve before Sunday's game against the Rams, then undrafted rookie Peyton Hendershot should step up behind starting tight end Dalton Schultz.

Catches one pass in win Ferguson caught his lone target for seven yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Commanders.

Impact Ferguson returned to his depth role in the tight end ranks with the return of starter Dalton Schultz after a one-game absence. The rookie played just 28 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps and was unable to get going with limited work. Barring another injury to Schultz, Ferguson should continue to operate as the team's top backup at tight end. The 23-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes as the Cowboys visit the Rams in Week 5.

Cooper Rush has kept Cowboys afloat — with a new offense. Should they keep it?

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022

Catches two passes in win Ferguson caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Monday's 23-16 win over the Giants.

Impact Ferguson played on 83 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps with starting tight end Dalton Schultz (knee) sidelined for the contest. Despite the rookie's increased involvement, he had little impact on the passing game. The Cowboys will host the Commanders in Week 4, and it's possible that Schultz will return to action. However, if the veteran is forced to miss more time, Ferguson would likely be the next man up again. With that said, the 23-year-old tight end did not show enough Monday to warrant much confidence in his ability to produce for fantasy purposes.

AUGUST 21, 2022 • USATODAY.COM

Second straight strong effort Ferguson brought in both targets for 29 yards in the Cowboys' 32-18 preseason win over the Chargers on Saturday night. He also caught a two-point conversion pass.

Impact The rookie turned in another solid performance after having produced a 3-29-0 line in the exhibition opener against the Broncos. Ferguson's impressive body of work over the first two preseason games seemingly sends him into Friday night's preseason finale against the Seahawks with a fairly secure grasp on a depth tight end role behind starter Dalton Schultz.

What Cowboys learned from flag-filled night in Denver

The Cowboys made too many penalties in a ragged preseason opener, but there were some good things, too, David Helman writes.

AUGUST 14, 2022

Three catches in preseason opener Ferguson brought in all three targets for 29 yards in the Cowboys' 17-7 preseason loss to the Broncos on Saturday night.

Impact The rookie fourth-round pick co-led the team in receptions while checking in second in receiving yards for the night, making it a solid debut. Ferguson would appear to have a good chance of locking down the No. 2 tight end role behind Dalton Schultz if he can produce in similar fashion during the Cowboys' remaining pair of preseason games.

AUGUST 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back at practice Ferguson returned to practice Monday after picking up a hamstring issue last Tuesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ferguson looked strong in his return to the field and stood out for his blocking Monday, according to Archer. The four-year collegiate starter out of Wisconsin should have ample experience as a run blocker, and this trait could give him an advantage in the competition for the Cowboys' No. 2 tight end spot behind Dalton Schultz. Should he remain active, it will be worth monitoring how many snaps Ferguson potentially sees ahead of fellow tight ends Sean McKeon and Jeremy Sprinkle during Dallas' first preseason game Saturday at Denver.
