Cowboys sign tight end Jake Ferguson to a 4-year, $52 million extension

  • On Sunday, Jake Ferguson agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $52 million with the Dallas Cowboys, earning him the highest salary ever for a tight end in the team's history.
  • Ferguson, who began his NFL career after being selected in the 2022 draft's fourth round following four years at Wisconsin, comes into this agreement after a 2024 season impacted by knee and concussion challenges.
  • Despite a down year in 2024 with 59 catches, 494 yards, and no touchdowns, the Cowboys value Ferguson's long-term potential after his 2023 breakout and Pro Bowl season.
  • Coach Brian Schottenheimer praised Ferguson's condition, saying, "He's lighter " and "moving around really, really well," while Ferguson stated, "If I'm on the field, I should be able to give it my all."
  • The extension locks in a crucial offensive player while the Cowboys continue contract discussions with standout defensive end Micah Parsons, who has yet to agree to terms as he approaches the start of his fifth-year option in 2025.
