Jake Ferguson: Jake Ferguson Tailed Off Late in 2025

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson opened the 2025 season as a premier fantasy option, but his productivity declined near the end of the year. After ranking as the overall TE1 in PPR leagues from Week 1 through Week 7, he dropped to the overall TE22 spot over the remainder of the season. He had a particularly poor showing over the final four weeks of the season, during which he had just seven catches and ranked 23rd among tight ends in fantasy points. Ultimately, Ferguson just couldn't carve out a consistent role while buried behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens in the pecking order. He also lost opportunities when the team decided to run the ball and feed Javonte Williams. All three of those skill players are back for 2026, making it tough to predict any sort of improvement for Ferguson. He's too dependent on targets to confidently draft as a top-eight fantasy tight end. Instead, he's a high-end TE2 who will deliver some mid-to-low TE1 outings from time to time. His name value makes him an appealing sell-high candidate in PPR leagues, especially since his finish as the overall TE5 masks his late-season struggles.
