Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Jake Ferguson (knee) will likely be out “multiple weeks” after going down in Week 9 against the Colts.

Ferguson exited Sunday’s game against the Colts after taking a nasty hit to his knee. While he was able to walk off under his own power and was later ruled “questionable” to return, the 27-year-old vet never got back into the game. Ferguson has caught just 19 passes for 136 yards and four touchdowns this season, with his best game coming in Week 2 (4-43-2) against the Commanders. Brevyn Spann-Ford, a 2024 UDFA, will likely take over in Ferguson’s absence but shouldn’t be trusted as anything more than a boom-or-bust TE2 at this point.
