I'm sure Ferguson wants to play but with an MCL and a bone bruise don't see how he can as a matter of fact he'll be lucky to avoid short-term IR you need your MCL for lateral stability as a tight end and the bone bruise that he has is not just a contusion but a microscopic fracture likely of the lateral tibal Plateau can't risk making that worse can't turn this into a long-term injury Jerry Jones Watson to play Jake Ferguson wants to play but I fully expect the Cowboys quality medical staff to exercise caution and hold Ferguson out till the bone heals hopefully only a four week in hopefully short-term IR at most
