The Cowboys will look to get back into the win column when they host a desperate Baltimore Ravens squad for a\u00a0pivotal Week 3 clash\u00a0at AT&amp;T Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_43tkky68n\">Several key Cowboys are\u00a0banged up ahead of the looming collision, including No. 1 tight end Jake Ferguson. Despite being &#8220;really close&#8221; to playing in Week 2, Ferguson was absent from the loss to the Saints due to a lingering MCL sprain and bone bruise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_nb8jqn26e\">When it comes to Ferguson&#8217;s Week 3 outlook, the Cowboys had some positive news to share on Friday.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"_jwnfl9nc5\" class=\"tagStyle_1rck2gq-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_jwnfl9nc5\">Cowboys Injury News: Jake Ferguson Fully Practices on Friday<\/h2>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_97pn5m4fe\">According to Cowboys insider Jon Machota, head coach Mike McCarthy was impressed by Ferguson&#8217;s performance during Friday&#8217;s practice. McCarthy said that the veteran TE &#8220;looked good&#8221; and that he&#8217;d go as far as labeling him as a full participant.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inarticle_d_1_5\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"style_11gw3bn-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_8mz058t7b\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1837186470810996851&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fsportdfw.com%2Fposts%2Fjake-ferguson-injury-update-great-news-cowboys-fans-01j8894xk7cm&amp;sessionId=5918eeae4b89df03087a634ffeca789fb660bd48&amp;siteScreenName=TheRealSportDFW&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1837186470810996851\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_2mcplrro5\">Machota added that McCarthy&#8217;s update means that Ferguson &#8220;should return Sunday.&#8221; Cowboys fans should be excited by this news given that the 25-year-old pass-catcher was\u00a0limited in back-to-back practices\u00a0on Wednesday and Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_dczfyg401\">Ferguson played in the Week 1 victory over the Cleveland Browns, however, that&#8217;s when disaster struck. The ex-Wisconsin Badger caught 3-of-5 targets for 15 yards before suffering his knee injury during the third quarter, which subsequently forced him out of the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_na8fnhcvx\">While Ferguson&#8217;s absence wasn&#8217;t the only reason behind last week&#8217;s loss to the Saints, it isn&#8217;t as if the Cowboys&#8217; other TEs were productive in his absence. Luke Schoonmaker caught all six of his targets for just 43 yards while\u00a0undrafted rookie Brevyn Spann-Ford didn&#8217;t do anything\u00a0despite playing 22 offensive snaps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_4o6kkn-o_O-style_1tcxgp3-o_O-style_1pinbx1-o_O-style_48hmcm\" data-mm-id=\"_oexctilzq\">Hopefully, Ferguson&#8217;s recovery will be speedy so he can be healthy in time for Sunday. The Cowboys could certainly use the boost that he could potentially provide given that they&#8217;re projected to be 1.5-point underdogs against the Ravens, per\u00a0FanDuel Sportsbook.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As embarrassing as last week&#8217;s loss to the New Orleans Saints was, the Dallas Cowboys can&#8217;t afford to dwell on the past any longer.
