Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Leading receiver in loss
Jake Ferguson caught seven of 10 targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Falcons.CeeDee Lamb led the Dallas Cowboys in catches (eight) and targets (12), but Ferguson paced the team in receiving yards in his best performance since he racked up a 6-95-0 line on 11 targets in Week 3. The third-year tight end recorded two of his receptions with Cooper Rush under center in the fourth quarter after Dak Prescott (hamstring) left the game, and if Rush gets the start in Week 10 against the Eagles, Ferguson could see big volume again.

Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Does little with eight targets
Jake Ferguson caught six of eight targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the 49ers.Ferguson didn't get in on the scoring fun that the tight end position enjoyed on National Tight Ends Day in the NFL. Instead, Ferguson had multiple defenders swarming to him on each of his six short catches, none of which went for more than 10 yards. He has at least six catches in four of his last five games, so Ferguson figures to see substantial volume again in Week 9 against the Falcons.

Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Limited to 11 yards
Jake Ferguson recorded three receptions on four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 47-9 loss to the Lions.Even with the Dallas Cowboys forced to take to the air in negative game script, Ferguson was surprisingly uninvolved in the offense. He finished sixth in targets and fifth in receptions on the team, and his longest gain went for just six yards. While it was a down performance, Ferguson should come out of Dallas' bye week as a continued priority in the offense.

Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Seven catches in win
Jake Ferguson secured all seven targets for 49 yards in the Dallas Cowboys' 20-15 win over the Giants on Thursday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Dallas.Ferguson tied CeeDee Lamb for the team lead in receptions while checking in second to his teammate in both receiving yards and targets. The third-year tight end generated a combined 13-144-0 line on 18 targets over Weeks 3 and 4, further cementing that he's essentially developed into the team's No. 2 pass catcher behind Lamb, at least for the moment. Ferguson should be poised for another busy day when the Cowboys travel to take on the vaunted Steelers defense on Sunday, Oct. 6, a game in which the tight end's prowess in the short and intermediate passing windows might be especially relevant given the limited time Dak Prescott may often have.

Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Big performance in return
Jake Ferguson recorded six receptions on 11 targets for 95 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to Baltimore.Ferguson returned from a one-game absence caused by a knee injury and immediately led the team in targets, receptions and yards. The majority of his production came in the final 16 minutes of game time as the Dallas Cowboys took to the air, highlighted by gains of 17 and 26 yards late in the third quarter. This was a unique game script, but Ferguson should remain a key figure in Dallas' offense and often command the second-most targets behind CeeDee Lamb.

Jake Ferguson (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.Ferguson was a full practice participant Friday, upgrading from limited the previous two days.

Ferguson profiles as a mid-to-low-range fantasy starter at the production-lacking TE position even with some added risk of an in-game injury/setback.

Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Officially limited Wednesday
Jake Ferguson (knee) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.Ferguson emerged from Week 1 with an MCL sprain and bone bruise in his left knee, which didn't allow him to practice last week. A doubtful designation ultimately forecast his lack of availability ahead of an eventual loss to the Saints last Sunday, but his ability to mix into drills to kick off Week 3 prep indicates he's making progress in his recovery. The extent of Ferguson's participation Thursday and Friday likely will be the determining factors in his chances to return to action Sunday versus the Ravens.
