UPDATE: Cowboys RG Zack Martin is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Commanders with an ankle and shoulder injury

Tight end Jake Ferguson won’t play against Washington.

Right guard Zack Martin is doubtful.

Cornerback DaRon Bland is poised to make his regular-season debut.

Ferguson comes as no surprise. He remains in concussion protocol. And Martin’s not much of a surprise, either. The Pro Bowl guard didn’t practice all week and is dealing with injuries to both ankles and a shoulder.

Since no one listed as doubtful at this stage has played in a game for the Cowboys this season, expect T.J. Bass to take Martin’s place.

“Like anything, you look at strengths,’’ Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said. “A very good lower half-body. And smart.’’

Bland has practiced three consecutive days leading up to a game for the first time this season. In fact, he carries no designation while cornerback Trevon Diggs is questionable with a groin and knee injury.

“He came out good yesterday [Thursday] and went through everything today,’’ McCarthy said of Bland.

Diggs is one of six players listed as questionable for Dallas. The others are guard Tyler Smith (ankle/knee), linebacker Nick Vigil (foot), swing tackle Chuma Edoga (toe), receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) and defensive end Marshawn Kneeland (knee).

Edoga, Cooks and Kneeland are all on injured reserve so a corresponding move would be required to make room for them on the active roster.
