The Dallas Cowboys will be without starting tight end Jake Ferguson and backup running back Tyler Goodson for multiple weeks, coach Brian Schottenheimer confirmed. Ferguson suffered sprained PCL and MCL ligaments in his left knee during the third quarter of the team's 27-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Goodson, who returned in the second half after a knee injury, finished with a career-high 77 rushing yards.
The team is already dealing with several other injuries, including tight end Luke Schoonmaker (groin) and safety P. J. Locke (concussion).
With only one slot remaining on the injured reserve/designated to return list, the Cowboys are exploring options to fill the void. Schottenheimer expressed confidence in the team's depth but acknowledged the loss of Goodson, who has been playing well. Other players like George Pickens, Joey Porter Jr., and De Marvion Overshown remain day-to-day.
