Jake Ferguson, Jadeveon Clowney will play week 15
The Dallas Cowboys looks set to get two key contributors back on the field for a key Week 15 game against the Minnesota Vikingswith recent updates pointing to Jake Ferguson and Jadeveon Clowney Sunday night dressing.
Dallas shortstop Jake Ferguson has been dealing with a calf problem all week and is officially listed as questionable. However, optimism rose Saturday night after NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport provided clarity on both Status of Ferguson and Clowney.
“Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (calf) and DE Jadeveon Clowney (hamstring) are questionable and both expected to play Sunday against Vikings, source said,” Rapoport posted on X, formerly Twitter.
Ferguson followed a limited/didn’t-practice/restricted progression during the training week, his official status likely won’t be confirmed until 90 minutes before kickoff.
On the defensive side, Jadeveon Clowney is also heading in the right direction. Veteran defensive end missed last week’s loss to the Detroit Lions with a hamstring injury, but showed signs of improvement this week.
After opening with two limited practices, Klovni returned to full participation on Fridayanother strong indication that he is ready to return to action against Minnesota.
The timing of these potential returns is also key for the Cowboys as they enter Sunday Night Football at 6-6-1, and hovering around the playoff bubble after a disappointing 44-30 loss to the Detroit Lions, who also broke the streak of three victories.
Despite the loss, the Cowboys offense showed life, with Dak Prescott throwing for 376 yards and CeeDee Lamb topping 120 receiving yards.
The Vikings, on the other hand, arrive at AT&T Stadium with a 5-8 record, also struggling to keep their postseason hopes alive. With kickoff scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET, both teams are desperate to gain momentum. But for Dallas, if Ferguson and Clowney are indeed available, they will get much-needed stability on both sides of the ball.
