The Dallas Cowboys will visit the Detroit Lions in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Jake Ferguson.
Is Jake Ferguson Playing in Week 14?

Should You Start or Sit Ferguson in Week 14?
Jake Ferguson is what he is and that’s enough at the tight end position, even if it’s irritating on a week-to-week basis.
He’s caught exactly five balls in consecutive games and in three of his past four, volume that half your league would kill to get from the tight end position. The rub is the yardage: Thursday was the seventh time this season he’s failed to clear 40 and with both receivers functioning at a high level, it’s hard to imagine much of a role change moving forward.
Do the Bengals get consistent TE production next to CHase/Higgins? What about the Rams alongside Nacua/Adams?
Ferguson is more talented than any tight end on those rosters, but you get the point. There is only so much usage for him to assume and while the PPR floor is stable, it’s important to understand that the projectable ceiling now isn’t in the same range as the numbers he was producing earlier this season.
