Jake Ferguson Week 8 Outlook - Cowboys at 49ers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 24th 2024, 9:16pm EDT

Ferguson is the TE8 in fantasy points per game, ranking fifth in deep targets among tight ends. He only has three red zone targets this season, but two of them occurred in his last game, so maybe Dallas is seeing the error in their ways. Ferguson has a 17.3% target share, 1.58 YPRR, and a strong 18.6% first-read share. He faces a 49ers pass defense that has utilized two high at the eighth-highest rate (49.6%). Against two high, Ferguson leads the team with a 23.2% target share with 2.23 YPRR (second on the team) and a 26.4% first-read share. Dak Prescott will be looking his way early and often this week.
