        Could Jake Ferguson Play Week 2?

        Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday that he's "optimistic" about TE Jake Ferguson's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Saints. Ferguson was diagnosed with an MCL sprain, and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said he'd "miss time." But it sounds like the injury might be less severe than initially thought. We'll keep an eye on Ferguson's status throughout this week.

        Jones isn't exactly the most reliable source when it comes to injuries, so take this with a grain of salt. Ferguson owners should still be lining up a backup plan for Week 2. But it at least sounds like Ferguson is not looking at an extended absence.

        TE Brevyn Spann-Ford ran nine routes in the Week 1 win over the Browns to TE Luke Schoonmaker's six. Neither guy is a viable Week 2 fantasy play even if Ferguson is out.
