The Dallas Cowboys will have plenty of tight ends on Sunday.
Per Yahoo Sports NFL reporter Jori Epstein:
“Cowboys have 4 TEs active today for 1st time this year. Dalton Schultz back after knee sidelined him last week. Rookies Jake Ferguson, Peyton Hendershot coming off game w/ both involved on offense, including Ferguson TD. Sean McKeon up from practice squad. Special teams a factor.”

This season, the Cowboys’ tight end unit has been one of their most underutilized units.
Dalton Schultz, the starter, has missed a few games this season, but he still managed to catch nine catches for 80 yards, after a 800+ yard, eight-TD 2021.
Peyton Hendershot ranks second in receiving for tight ends, and Jake Ferguson is the only one to have scored a touchdown.
We’ll see if Dak Prescott, now back in the fold will lean on Schultz or the other TE’s more.
