The Dallas Cowboys’ first complete game without their franchise QB, Dak Prescott, did not go as planned. The Philadelphia Eagles beat the Cowboys by 28 points. Tonight, the Cowboys host the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET.
Dallas’ TE Jake Ferguson missed one week due to injury this season but still has caught 42 passes for 358 yards. Through eight games, Ferguson has yet to reach the endzone.
Below, I detail some Jake Ferguson prop bets for tonight’s matchup vs. the Texans.
Best Jake Ferguson Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Jake Ferguson Over 4.5 catches (+125)
Ferguson has at least five catches in five of eight games this season. Last week, Furguson caught four of five targets for 24 yards. In the previous two games, Furguson was targeted at least eight times.
Even though new starter Cooper Rush may not have as much upside as Prescott, he had success as a starter in 2022. Ferguson’s over in catches being +125 on DraftKings Sportsbook is a great value.
Jake Ferguson Under 34.5 yards (-120)
Although Ferguson has been a big part of the Cowboys’ passing offense, he has averaged over two fewer yards per catch this year. He has only had four games with over 34.5 receiving yards. Throughout the past four games, Ferguson has only finished with 35 yards or more once.
Even though Prescott wasn’t having his best season, he averaged 247.3 passing yards per game. Rush completed 13 of 23 attempts for 45 yards and no touchdowns against the Eagles. It will be hard to trust any Cowboys pass catcher until Rush proves he can be at least an average passer.
