The Dallas Cowboys (3-3) will visit the Denver Broncos (5-2) in Week 8. 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 8?
Ferguson is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Cowboys’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Jake Ferguson in Week 8?
Fantasy’s TE1 just keeps chugging along.
- Blind Line #1: 153 targets and 261.4 PPR points
- Blind Line #2: 147 targets and 317.6 PPR points
Any guesses?
The first one is 2024 Brock Bowers and the second is the pace of Jake Ferguson over his past six games.
Yes, that’s what we are looking at here. The type of target looked a little different last week against the Commanders with CeeDee Lamb back, but the quality of look was strong and he knows what to do with it.
We are only halfway through the fantasy season, but if I had to guess today who is going to be the most common player on playoff teams this season, Ferguson’s name is on the short list.
This is the perfect setup and there’s no reason to think that he stops producing like an absolute game changer.
