Jake Ferguson Looks Like a Must-Start Tight End Through First Four Games of 2025

Tuesday, September 30, 9:53 PM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson hauled in all seven of his targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Ferguson has now recorded 34 catches for 223 yards and a score on 39 targets through his first four games of 2025. With Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) currently sidelined by a high ankle sprain, Ferguson looks like the number two option in the passing game for quarterback Dak Prescott, behind only wide receiver George Pickens. Dallas has also attempted the most passes (171) of any team in the NFL this season. Ferguson profiles as a must-start fantasy tight end heading into a Week 5 matchup against the New York Jets.

Bo Nix Looking to Stay Hot Versus Philadelphia

Saturday, October 4, 6:22 AM

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton will need a good game out of quarterback Bo Nix this week to best the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles defense. After coming off a 326-yard outing last week, Nix should keep his confidence rolling in a game that will be a great test for him this season. The Eagles are 15th in passing defense, allowing 215 yards per game through the air, while 21st against the run, allowing 126 rushing yards per game. With bye weeks and injuries, Nix is a solid start and should produce this week against the Eagles. As RotoBaller's 10th-ranked quarterback this week, feel free to start Nix with confidence as a low-end QB1.
