Sanders recorded zero targets during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Broncos.

Sanders was active for the first time this season. However, he didn't log any offensive snaps and spent all his time on special teams. The 23-year-old has appeared in 30 regular-season games during his career, amassing 62 catches (77 targets) for 532 yards and two touchdowns. Sanders has had a few quality performances throughout his short NFL career, though he likely won't have an opportunity to get involved offensively moving ahead while Tommy Tremble and Darren Waller are in the mix.

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 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.

Loveland caught four of six targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Buccaneers.

Loveland was quiet for most of the night but got free for a 38-yard catch in the final minute to set up Cairo Santos' game-winning 38-yard field goal on the game's final play. The 2025 first-round pick has recorded at least 54 receiving yards in five of the past six games, having bounced back from a slow start to his sophomore season during which Loveland compiled just 34 yards through three games. Loveland will try to keep building momentum in Week 11 against the Saints following Chicago's Week 10 bye.

Sadiq caught all four of his targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 35-12 loss to the Chiefs.

After taking a back seat to Mason Taylor in recent weeks, Sadiq out-targeted his tight end teammate four to two against Kansas City. The rookie also closed the gap on Taylor in terms of routes, as Taylor ran 21 to Sadiq's 20 on Geno Smith's 38 dropbacks. It was easily Sadiq's most productive game since posting a 7-105-1 line in Week 3 against Detroit. He's not yet playable in most fantasy formats.

Kraft brought in one of three targets for one yard and rushed twice for eight yards in the Packers' 45-27 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

The athletic tight end didn't get in on any of the fun on a day when Jordan Love threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns. Kraft's stat line set (receptions, receiving yards) or tied (targets) season lows, while his work on the ground included a pair of season-high figures. Nevertheless, it was an utterly forgettable showing for Kraft, who'll look to atone in a Week 10 home divisional clash against the Vikings next Sunday.

Dulcich caught two of four targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 19-9 loss to the Lions.

Entering play Sunday, Dulcich produced 13 grabs for 166 yards over his previous three games, but he took a big step back against Detroit on a day Malik Willis didn't have any answers, as he passed for just 128 yards. Dulcich doesn't catch touchdowns and plays in a low-volume, low-scoring offense, making him more of a TE2 headed into Week 10 against the Colts.

Mayer caught all three of his targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 38-17 loss to the 49ers.

The tight end was inches and a couple breaks away from having a much bigger afternoon, as he lost a fumble just before crossing the goal line on what would have been a 25-yard touchdown. He then had another score called back on a penalty in the second half. Mayer has alternated big games with down ones this season, and he'll try to rebound next Sunday in a tough spot against the Seahawks' strong defense.

Schultz caught two of four targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Chargers.

Not counting his 12-140-0 receiving explosion in Week 2 when Nico Collins was out with a hamstring injury, Schultz has mustered 23 grabs for 244 yards and no touchdowns across his seven other appearances. He's failed to reach 50 receiving yards in any of those contests and is merely a TE2 in fantasy.

Gesicki caught both of his targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 34-17 win versus Atlanta.

Gesicki entered Week 9 having scored a touchdown in five straight games, and he saw his streak come to an end Sunday. The tight end was able to reel in multiple passes for the second straight week and fifth time this season, but his 11 receiving yards left much to be desired. Gesicki has now reeled in 19 of 26 targets for 252 yards and six touchdowns over eight regular-season games so far this year.
