  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: In line to miss multiple weeks, per coach

    According to coach Brian Schottenheimer, Ferguson (knee) is in line to miss multiple weeks, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    At a minimum, Ferguson is on track to miss at least this coming weekend's game against the 49ers, but a 'multiple week' timetable hints at a possible IR stint for the tight end. Next up for the Cowboy's reps at the position are Brevyn Spann-Ford, Luke Schoonmaker (groin) --when healthy -- and James Mitchell. With the NFL trade deadline arriving Tuesday, it's also not difficult to imagine Dallas looking into finding additional help in Ferguson's looming absence.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Headed for imaging on knee

    Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said after Sunday's 27-23 win over the Colts that Ferguson will undergo imaging on his knee Monday, the team's official site reports.

    Ferguson played just 27 of the Cowboys' 79 offensive snaps and finished with two catches for 21 yards and a touchdown on two targets before exiting Sunday's game in the third quarter after taking a low hit. Schottenheimer noted that Ferguson initially sustained a stinger on the hit, but the Cowboys later classified his injury as a knee issue. The upcoming MRI will reveal the severity of the injury, which tentatively clouds Ferguson's status for the Cowboys' Week 10 matchup with the 49ers.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Suffers knee injury in Week 9

    Ferguson sustained a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Colts, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Ferguson tended to a low-ankle sprain during Week 9 prep, but it's now one of his knees that's a concern after he took a low hit in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup. He had two catches (on two targets) for 21 yards and one touchdown at the time of his exit.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Active in Week 9

    Ferguson (ankle) is listed as active Sunday in Indianapolis.

    Ferguson left last Sunday's loss to the Cardinals on the Cowboys' first possession and wasn't able to return due to an ankle injury. He was diagnosed with a low-ankle sprain, and while head coach Brian Schottenheimer relayed to Jon Machota of The Athletic on Monday that Ferguson has a chance to play in Week 9, the tight end managed just one limited practice (Friday) and was listed as questionable. Now that Ferguson is confirmed to be active, his workload is unclear with two other TEs (Brevyn Spann-Ford and James Mitchell) also available to the offense.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Listed as questionable for Sunday

    Ferguson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Ferguson returned to practice Friday as a limited participant, after making an early exit Week 8 and missing practice earlier this week. Dallas has downplayed the severity of Ferguson's injury, but he looks no better than 50/50 ahead of a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday at Indianapolis. Brevyn Spann-Ford filled in after Ferguson's first-quarter exit last week, playing 88 percent of snaps on offense and catching four of five targets for 31 yards.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Could practice Friday

    Head coach Brian Schottenheimer hopes that Ferguson (ankle) will be "back on the field" Friday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Ferguson did not get any work in Wednesday or Thursday due to the ankle injury he sustained in Week 8, but it appears there is a chance he could practice in some capacity Friday. The Cowboys will reveal his official status for Week 9 at some point following the conclusion of Friday's session.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Remains unavailable Thursday

    Ferguson (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Ferguson's back-to-back absences to kick off Week 9 prep don't bode well for his availability Sunday against the Colts. He sustained a low-ankle sprain after playing just four snaps during Dallas' Week 8 loss to the Cardinals. Brevyn Spann-Ford worked as the team's top TE after Ferguson's exit. Ferguson will have one more opportunity to practice Friday before Dallas posts Week 9 game statuses.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Officially unavailable for practice

    Ferguson (ankle) did not participate at the Cowboys' practice Wednesday, Patrik Walker of the team's official site reports.

    As expected, Ferguson was unavailable for practice as he worked off to the side with the team's training staff. The tight end is working through a low-ankle sprain that he suffered during the team's 33-30 overtime loss to Arizona in Week 8, and his availability for Sunday's matchup against the Colts is in question. Ferguson will have two more chances to return to practice this week, but if he can't go for Week 9, Brevyn Spann-Ford would be a top candidate to take over as the primary tight end for Dallas.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Working with trainers Wednesday

    Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Ferguson (ankle) will work with the Cowboys' training staff during Wednesday's practice, Briana Aldridge of CBS News Texas reports.

    Such comments are an indication that Ferguson will go down as a DNP to kick off Week 9 prep, something that'll be revealed on Wednesday's injury report. Ferguson is tending to a low-ankle sprain in the wake of this past Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Has chance to play Sunday

    Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Ferguson (ankle) has a chance to play Sunday at Indianapolis, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Ferguson hurt his ankle early in Sunday's eventual overtime loss to the Cardinals, eventually was ruled out and then diagnosed with a low-ankle sprain. Schottenheimer's comments one day later follow the general belief that players often are able to gut out such injuries, but how Ferguson fares in practice Wednesday through Friday will determine his availability for Week 9.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Sustains low-ankle sprain

    Ferguson suffered a low-ankle sprain during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

    Ferguson picked up an ankle injury on the Cowboys' first drive of the game and eventually was ruled out after halftime. He thus finished Week 8 without a target, making it his second contest in a row with no catches in the box score. Low-ankle sprains typically can be played through, but Ferguson's status will be watched to get a sense of his potential to suit up next Sunday at Indianapolis.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Ruled out for rest of game

    Ferguson (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Joe Hoyt reports.

    Prior to his exit, Ferguson wasn't targeted by QB Dak Prescott. In his absence versus Arizona, Brevyn Spann-Ford and James Mitchell are available to handle TE duties for the remainder of Sunday's contest.

  • Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Injures ankle Sunday

    Ferguson suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Ferguson exited on the Cowboys' first offensive possession and is questionable to return. With Luke Schoonmaker (groin) inactive, Brevyn Spann-Ford and James Mitchell are the active healthy tight ends for Dallas.
