The Cowboys ruled out WRs CeeDee Lamb and KaVontae Turpin, as well as starting G Tyler Booker and T Tyler Guyton for Sunday's game vs. the Jets.

Related Players: George Pickens, Jalen Tolbert, Ryan Flournoy, Jake Ferguson

It should be the Pickens/Ferguson show once again, as they both project as top-5, volume-based plays at their respective positions. There is at least some hope for Lamb returning in Week 6, so managers can breathe a sigh of relief.

Cowboys not ready to make calls until after practice on status of injured guys like Tyler Guyton, Tyler Smith, KaVontae Turpin. "We've got to figure out a number of guys," Brian Schottenheimer said. CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Booker will miss second straight game.

Jake Ferguson is dealing with a back contusion suffered Thursday, according to a source. Not considered serious so the Cowboys avoid a scare with their starting tight end.

Good news for Ferguson here. As a clear option to be the No. 3 pass-catcher in a pass-heavy offense, he should be considered as a fantasy asset in the fringe TE1/2 range.

Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said Micah Parsons remains with the team even though he wasn’t at today’s practice.

More evaluation needed on RB Jaydon Blue and TE Jake Ferguson but they don’t think either injury is significant

Sounds like a rough day at practice for the Cowboys, but we shouldn't bump Ferguson down the ranks until we hear it's a more serious injury than it looks. As a clear option to be the No. 3 pass-catcher in a pass-heavy offense, he should be considered as a fantasy asset in the fringe TE1/2 range.

Cowboys ruled out Jake Ferguson for the Thanksgiving game vs. the New York Giants due to his concussion. His replacement, once again, will be Luke Schoonmaker.

This was expected, but it could have been a nice matchup for the No. 2 pass-catcher. Schoonmaker is a little less exciting but is worth a TE stream for desperate managers.

Long list here, but this is what I’ve gathered:

Guys I expect to play: Brandin Cooks, CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Smith, Cooper Rush

Guys I don’t expect to play: Jake Ferguson, Caelen Carson (possible IR), Zack Martin, Asim Richards

Gonna be close: Trevon Diggs, Eric Kendricks, Marshawn Kneeland

Ferguson didn't practice Tuesday and remains in protocol, while Rush and Lamb both logged limited sessions. Cooks was also limited. Harris expects Rush, Lamb and Cooks to all play on Thanksgiving against the Giants. If Ferguson is out, Schoonmaker makes for a nice option as a replacement TE in fantasy lineups.

Jones said there’s a good chance Brandin Cooks and Tyler Smith will be able to play Thursday. Trevon Diggs also has a chance. It’s “a little more of a long shot” for Zack Martin and Jake Ferguson.

Cooks practiced last week but ended up not playing in Week 12. Ferguson is in protocol and it seems like the early week game will keep him out once again. Lamb collected 12 targets to lead the team by far against the Commander and Schoonmaker and Tolbert each had four. It's no lock that Cooks steps right into a big role, even in a good matchup against the Giants on Thanksgiving. Schoonmaker would be worth a start for those needing TE help.

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

DE DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) worked out on a side field, marking his first on-field action since late September.

LG Tyler Smith (ankle/knee) also worked with rehab group.

No sign of TE Jake Ferguson (concussion).

It's not looking great for Ferguson's Week 12 availability, which puts Schoonmaker on TE streaming radars (sort of). Schoonmaker should be favored behind far better options, as the Cowboys offense looks disheveled for the rest of the season.

The Cowboys didn’t have many weapons before the game started. They have one fewer now.

The Cowboys have ruled out tight end Jake Ferguson with a concussion.

Ferguson had one catch for 11 yards before departing in the first half. He is their third-leading receiver, behind CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert, with 43 receptions for 369 yards this season. His status for Week 12 at the Commanders is now in doubt, as a lot of players trend toward missing a week of action after a concussion. Schoonmaker filled in nicely catching six pass for 56 yards on 10 targets. He would make for a potential great replacement if he's still on your wire.
