DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. New York Giants

Jake Ferguson has emerged as a steady second chair in the Cowboys passing game behind CeeDee Lamb. Lamb is the only Cowboy with more targets, receptions, and receiving yards than Ferguson this season, He's the TE10 in Half-PPR points per game, but the TE4 over the last two weeks.

The Giants rank 10th in aFPA to tight ends in 2023. But this team is circling the drain and doesn't seem like they'll be able to stop the Cowboys' main weapons from expressing themselves this week. Treat Ferguson as a solid TE1 option this week.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Philadelphia Eagles

After a quiet couple of weeks, Jake Ferguson had one of his most productive games of the season in Week 8 against the Rams. Ferguson caught all four of his targets – he has caught every ball sent his way in each of the last four games – for 47 yards and his first touchdown grab since Week 2. Ferguson managed 12.7 Half-PPR points, his best output of the year, but is still only averaging 6.89 points per game.

A possible shootout with the Eagles should be good news for all Cowboys pass catchers, given the Eagles friendly nature to fantasy receivers. The Birds rank 22nd in aFPA to tight ends this season, and Ferguson should be able to post TE1 numbers in Week 9.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Los Angeles Rams

The Jake Ferguson breakout season is not really going to plan so far. He ranks 16th in targets per game (4.83) and receptions per game (3.5), but he has just one touchdown and averages 31.67 receiving yards per game. Ferguson sits at TE16 in fantasy points per game.

Ferguson has a pretty good matchup on paper, with the Rams ranked 30th in aFPA to the tight end spot so far in 2023. Still, he's not likely to produce at the very highest level, but a high-end TE2 finish should be within his possibilities in Week 8.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Los Angeles Chargers

Week 5 was not a banner week for Jake Ferguson, who fared no better against the 49ers than the rest of his fellow Cowboys. He caught 100% of his targets for the second consecutive game, but he only saw three, and his three grabs brought him 28 scoreless yards. Ferguson managed just 4.3 Half PPR points, good for TE22 in Week 5. Ferguson averages 6.7 Half-PPR points per game this season, just outside the TE1 range.

Ferguson doesn't have a prime matchup in Week 6, nor does he have one to strike fear into the hearts of Ferguson managers. The Chargers are 22nd in aFPA to tight ends this season. Ferguson should be viewed as a low-end TE1 option this week.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at San Francisco 49ers

Jake Ferguson has finally emerged as the leader in the Cowboys tight end room, now setting the pace in snaps played (51%) and targets (25 to Ferguson, seven combined for Luke Schoonmaker and Peyton Hendershot). Against the Patriots last week, Ferguson caught all seven of his targets for 77 yards and finished as the TE8 for the Week, exactly where he sits in Half-PPR points per game.

Ferguson remains a player that you simply must start at fantasy sport's most volatile position against the 49ers in Week 5. The 49ers rank 14th in aFPA to tight ends in 2023, and Ferguson's emergence as the lead tight end on the Cowboys makes him a viable low end-TE1 option this week.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. New England Patriots

Jake Ferguson continued to perform at an OK level for tight ends in Week 3 against the Cardinals, neither bursting with fantasy points nor completely dudding out in a favorable matchup. Ferguson caught five of his seven targets for 48 yards, giving him 7.3 Half PPR points for a TE13 performance for the week. Ferguson is TE13 in points per game this season.

The Patriots are a fairly mediocre outfit when it comes to defending tight ends in 2023, ranking 12th in aFPA to the position. Ferguson has done enough to keep fantasy managers interested in him, but not enough to make him a player they must start. A low-end TE1 or high-end TE2 projection seems safe enough for Week 4.

DAL TE Jake Ferguson - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Arizona Cardinals

It was a mixed week for Jake Ferguson against the Jets in Week 2. Ferguson played almost double the snaps of his fellow tight ends but still ceded a target to each of them and a rushing attempt to Peyton Hendershot. Ferguson was able to grab three of his four targets for a meager 11 yards, but he did score a touchdown on his way to 8.6 Half PPR points. This was good for a TE11 finish.

Ferguson is definitely on the streaming radar in Week 3 against a Cardinals team that just begs for tight ends to produce against them. Still, the tight end by committee makes him a cautionary tale.
