The Dallas Cowboys shifted some personnel on offense after a tough performance in the previous game, moving tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford into the starting lineup to replace Jake Ferguson. Ferguson, who signed a four-year, $50 million contract, has struggled this season, recording 15 receptions for 102 yards in five games. While Ferguson wasn’t completely sidelined, the team clearly signaled a push for greater accountability from players who haven’t lived up to expectations so far.
The move comes as the Cowboys reassess their offense amid a disappointing start to the 2026 season, with most of the criticism aimed at the defense, Ferguson, and right tackle Terence Steele. Spann-Ford’s insertion as starter marks a notable shift in approach as the team eyes improvements across the board in hopes of contending in the NFC.
