So, letâs chat about Luepke. With tight end Jake  Ferguson going down with a left knee sprain duringÂ
Sundayâs season opener against the Cleveland  Browns, it looked like we might be in a tight spotÂ
with our tight end depth. But fear notâoffensive  coordinator Brian Schottenheimer and head coachÂ
Mike McCarthy have got a plan. Enter Hunter  Luepke, who isnât your run-of-the-mill fullback.Â
This guyâs got versatility in spades and is ready  to step up in a big way. Looks like Luepkeâs aboutÂ
to play a bigger role than ever on the field. Alright, letâs dive into the scoop onÂ
Hunter Luepke, the Cowboysâ not-so-secret  weapon. This guy made the roster in 2023 as anÂ
undrafted free agent from North Dakota State,  and heâs been flyinâ under the radar everÂ
since. Heâs listed as a running back,  but donât let that fool ya. LuepkeâsÂ
been mixinâ it up with the tight ends,  which means heâs wearinâ a lot of hats on theÂ
field. From lead blocker to inline tight end,  and even protectinâ the QB, this dudeâsÂ
got versatility written all over him. Standing at 6'1" and weighinâ in at 238 lbs,Â
he might look more like a linebacker, but his  ability to bounce between roles makes him a hugeÂ
asset. Coach McCarthy nailed it when he said,  âHunter is a very flexible player for us.â WithÂ
Fergusonâs knee injury throwinâ a wrench into the  plans for Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints,Â
Luepkeâs flexibility is about to come in handy. ...you hit that like button and subscribe forÂ

Do you think Hunter Luepkeâs ready to step up  and fill a bigger role in the offense? Drop yourÂ
thoughts in the comments below. Should Luepke be  the go-to guy for Fergusonâs blocking duties, orÂ
should the Dallas team look elsewhere? Weâve got  a poll runninâ in our community sectionâmake sureÂ
to cast your vote and let us know what you think! So, whyâs everyone buzzinâ about Luepke andÂ
his role with the Cowboys? Itâs all about that  versatility, yâall. Sure, he ainât exactlyÂ
the pass-catchinâ dynamo Ferguson isâLuepke  wrapped up last season with just five catchesÂ
for 36 yardsâbut itâs his blocking skills that  really make him shine. Offensive coordinator BrianÂ
Schottenheimer has been singinâ Luepkeâs praises,  sayinâ his knack for crucial blocks in theÂ
run game is just what the Dallas Cowboys need,  especially if Fergusonâs out for a bit.
Schottenheimerâs got some high praise, callinâ  Luepke a âstealâ and sayin' his physical play andÂ
love for gettinâ into the action make him a prime  fit for the NFL offense. Just look at what he didÂ
in Sundayâs game against the BrownsâLuepke threw a  key block on a run play he hadnât even practiced!Â
That kinda adaptability has got the Cowboysâ  coaches pumped about what he brings to the table.
So, Cowboys Nation, whatâs your take? How crucial  do you think Luepkeâs role is for the offenseâsÂ
success? Do you reckon his blocking skills can  help cover for Fergusonâs injury? Drop yourÂ
thoughts in the comments, and donât forget to  share this video with your fellow CowboysÂ
fans to keep the conversation rollinâ! Now, it ain't just Luepke in the mix. The DallasÂ
Cowboys still got Luke Schoonmaker, Sean McKeon,  and John Stevens Jr. hanginâ around, but noneÂ
of these guys have made their mark in the NFLÂ Â yet. Thatâs why McCarthy and Schottenheimer areÂ
all about rollin' with Luepkeâs skills. Heâs  racked up 17 career games, and his experienceÂ
as a hybrid player gives him a solid edge. With Fergusonâs return still up in the airÂ
for Week 2, the Cowboys gotta have a game  plan ready. And from what McCarthyâs hinting, itÂ
looks like Luepkeâs gonna see a lot more action. So, letâs talk strategy for a sec. IfÂ
Fergusonâs injury keeps him sidelined,  whatâs the best move for the Cowboys? Should theyÂ
lean more on Luepke as a blocker, or should one  of the other tight ends step up? We wanna hearÂ
from you, Cowboys Nationâcast your vote in our  poll and drop your predictions in the comments.
Yâall heard the latest on Jake Ferguson? The  good news is his MRI didnât show any seriousÂ
damage, so thereâs still a shot heâll be out  there against the Saints. McCarthyâs sayinâÂ
Ferguson will be in the return-to-play group  at practice come Wednesday. Thatâs some hopefulÂ
news that we might see him back sooner rather than  later. But donât get too comfy just yetâ theÂ
Cowboys are still preppinâ for the worst, and  thatâs why theyâre keepinâ a close eye on Luepke.
Now, Fergusonâs a real playmaker for the Dallas  Cowboys. Last season, he tallied up 761 receivingÂ
yards and was the second-best on the team in that  area. If he canât make it in Week 2, itâs gonnaÂ
leave a noticeable gap. But with Luepke ready  to step up, McCarthy and Schottenheimer areÂ
pretty sure the offense wonât skip a beat. Before we wrap up, donât forget to hit thatÂ

Well, folks, the big question now is whether  Hunter Luepke is ready to step up. As we gearÂ
up for the Cowboys' Week 2 showdown against the  Saints, all eyes are gonna be on Luepke. The bigÂ
question is, will he snag a bigger spot in the  offense? And, more crucially, can he fill in forÂ
Jake Ferguson if the tight endâs sidelined? Thatâs  a whole lotta pressure for an undrafted freeÂ
agent, but if anyoneâs got the grit to handle it,  itâs Luepke. Heâs already shown he canÂ
roll with the punches, and his versatility  makes him a real gem in McCarthyâs playbook.
Cowboys Nation, weâre all fired up to see what  Luepke can do with more chances, and we wannaÂ
hear from yâall. Do you think Luepkeâs ready  to take on a bigger role? Drop your thoughts inÂ
