The Cowboys are still adding talent and options for their 2025 roster, but one position that may already be set is tight end. Beyond just having enough bodies, Dallas could even have a competition brewing at the top of the depth chart between incumbent starter Jake Ferguson and third-year prospect Luke Schoonmaker.
It’s easy to assume that Ferguson will just waltz right back into his spot as TE1. But there are reasons that the Cowboys may not dismiss Schoonmaker outright. While draft pedigree only goes so far, Ferguson was a fourth-round pick in 2022 and Schoonmaker was a second-rounder the following season.
