Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson, initially seen as a top-10 fantasy option for the season, is ruled out for Week 2 due to a knee sprain suffered in the first game. Although Ferguson's injury isn't severe, he will not play against the New Orleans Saints, leaving fantasy managers to consider alternatives.
Backup Luke Schoonmaker is not recommended as a replacement this week; he lacks Ferguson's pass-catching prowess. Other tight ends available on the waiver wire may provide better options for those affected by Ferguson's absence.
