Flashes potential as rookie Ferguson caught 19 of 22 targets for 174 yards and a touchdown over 16 regular-season games in 2022.
Impact A fourth-round pick out of Wisconsin in the 2022 NFL Draft, Ferguson most productive performance came Week 6 when he caught four of six targets for 40 yards and a TD. Stuck behind Dalton Schultz when the veteran tight end was healthy, Ferguson got only occasional chances to flash his upside and athleticism as a pass catcher, but he tended to make the most of them. Ferguson landed on highlight reels during a Thanksgiving Day win over the Giants with a 30-year catch-and-run that featured both a leaping grab and a hurdle over safety Jason Pinnock. Schultz is an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and if Dallas elects not to bring him back, Ferguson could head into 2023 as the team's No. 1 tight end.

One big catch in return Ferguson caught his only target for 24 yards in Saturday's win over the Eagles.
Impact After missing last week's game due to a concussion, Ferguson looked 100 percent in his return and displayed his athleticism with a nifty spin move that turned a short pass into a big gain in the fourth quarter. The rookie tight end remains behind Dalton Schultz on the depth chart, but with the veteran headed for free agency in the offseason, Ferguson has shown flashes of being ready for a much bigger role in 2023.

Good to go Saturday Ferguson (concussion) has been deemed active for Saturday's game versus Philadelphia, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Ferguson missed last Sunday's loss to Jacksonville after sustaining a concussion during the Week 14 win over Houston. The rookie tight end was then limited in each practice during Week 16 prep, though he apparently cleared protocols ahead of Saturday. Ferguson has caught 16 of 19 targets for 139 yards and two touchdowns this season, and he should reprise his role as Dallas' No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz.
DECEMBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Week 16 Ferguson (concussion) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Impact After stringing together three consecutive capped sessions due to the concussion he sustained back in Week 14 versus Houston, Ferguson is now in danger of missing a second consecutive game when the Cowboys host Philadelphia on Saturday. If the rookie isn't afforded the green light this weekend, then Peyton Hendershot should operate as the team's No. 2 tight end behind starter Dalton Schultz.
DECEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Opens Week 16 prep limited Ferguson (concussion) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Impact Ferguson missed last weekend's matchup against Jacksonville as a result of the concussion he suffered the week prior versus Houston, and he's since opened Week 16 prep as a limited participant during Tuesday's walk-through session. If the rookie is eventually unable to clear protocols prior to Saturday's contest against Philadelphia, then Peyton Hendershot and Sean McKeon would be in line to serve as Dalton Schultz's top backup options for the time being.
DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for Sunday Ferguson (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Impact With Ferguson unable to practice all week, Peyton Hendershot and Sean McKeon have been left for depth behind starter Dalton Schultz. Ferguson's next chance to play will be a Saturday game against the Eagles in Week 16 (Dec. 24).
DECEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Remains in protocols Ferguson (concussion) was a non-participant in practice Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Ferguson will need to move further along in the league's concussion protocols process, before he is able to return to the practice field. If he is unable to clear those protocols in time, Peyton Hendershot will likely climb to No. 2 on the teams positional depth chart, while Sean McKeon would move up to No. 3.
DECEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Misses practice with concussion Ferguson was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a concussion sustained in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Texans, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact It was originally reported that Ferguson exited the game with a neck injury, so this is the first clarification he suffered a concussion. He will now need to clear the league's protocols in order to suit up for Dallas' Week 15 matchup with the Jaguars. If he is ultimately unable to go, Peyton Hendershot would presumably be the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz.
DECEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Forced out Sunday Ferguson (head/neck) was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Texans, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Ferguson did not log a statistic before he sustained a pair of injuries Sunday, though the exact nature of these issues is still unknown. The rookie has caught 16 of his 19 targets for 139 yards and two touchdowns as the Cowboys' No. 2 tight end through the first 12 games of the season. With Ferguson sidelined, Peyton Hendershot and Sean McKeon will likely step into bigger roles behind Dalton Schultz.
DECEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Maintains small role in offense Ferguson caught both his targets for minus-1 yard in Sunday's win over the Colts.
Impact The Cowboys racked up 54 points, but Ferguson didn't benefit from the offensive eruption. The rookie tight end has caught all seven of his targets over the last three games for 71 yards, but even in a TE Premium format he has little fantasy value while Dalton Schultz is healthy.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Impresses in Thanksgiving win Ferguson caught all three of his targets for a career-high 57 yards in Thursday's 28-20 win over the Giants.
Impact Thirty of those yards came on a spectacular catch-and-run early in the fourth quarter that saw the rookie tight end hurdle one New York defender before lowering his shoulders and trucking another for an extra few yards. Ferguson's fantasy value is low now that Dalton Schultz is fully healthy, but he's showing impressive glimpses of his potential if he grows into the starting role down the road.
