Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson

Overview

In July 2026, NFL officials began scrutinizing Jake Ferguson after a series of fumbles that raised concerns about his ball security. By early August, the focus shifted to his on‑field contributions: Ferguson signed a four‑year, $50 million extension after a breakout 2025 season and emerged as a primary offensive weapon during training camp, displaying strong chemistry with quarterback Dak Prescott and improved blocking. The camp also noted a groin injury to rookie linebacker Jaishawn Barham, which was expected to heal quickly and not affect preseason plans.
