Who Should I Start? Jake Ferguson or Trey McBride

Monday, November 9, 12:44 PM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (knee) "should miss multiple weeks," head coach Brian Schottenheimer told Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News. Ferguson initially suffered a stinger in the Week 9 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday before eventually being ruled out with a knee injury that will sideline him for the short term. The 27-year-old will at least miss the Week 10 game this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers and could also be sidelined in Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans. The following week is a quick turnaround for the annual Thanksgiving Day game on Thursday, Nov. 26, against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. If his knee injury lingers, Ferguson could be a candidate to land on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss a minimum of four games. The former fourth-rounder is not a must-hold in shallow fantasy football leagues. Ferguson has four touchdown catches in nine games, but it has come with an underwhelming 19 receptions for 136 yards on 27 targets. In his absence, Brevyn Spann-Ford and Luke Schoonmaker (groin) will battle for more pass-game targets in Dallas.
