The Dallas Cowboys released their final injury report for the Thanksgiving Day game against the New York Giants and gave an update on tight end Jake Ferguson and offensive lineman Zack Martin. The team announced that Ferguson and Martin have been ruled out for the Week 13 matchup. Ferguson is dealing with a concussion, and Martin has injuries to his ankle and shoulder.

Jake Ferguson did not practice all week and will miss his second consecutive game due to a concussion he suffered in the first quarter of the Week 11 game against the Houston Texans. He has played in nine of the team’s 11 games and has caught 43 passes for 369 yards.

Zack Martin will also miss his second consecutive game after playing in the team’s first 10 contests of the year. In the Texans game, Martin left with an ankle injury. Martin is in his 11th season with the Cowboys (and the NFL) and is one of the top linemen in the league, being named to the Pro Bowl and the All-Pro Team nine times.

Other players on the Cowboys’ injury report are cornerback Trevon Diggs (groin/knee), linebacker Eric Kendricks (groin/shoulder), defensive end Marshawn Kneeland (knee) and linebacker Nick Vigil (foot). Diggs, Kendricks and Vigil are questionable, while Kneeland has been ruled doubtful.

Why Dallas Cowboys will miss Jake Ferguson and Zack Martin

Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (back/foot) and quarterback Cooper Rush (knee) were on the injury report to start the week but were taken off on Thursday since both are expected to play. This is good news for Dallas since the team needs as many healthy players as possible to finish the season strong and potentially reach the postseason.

“Clearly, if you need a definition of urgency, we’ve definitely had it here over this last month and, frankly, I’m just thankful and really happy for the players — to have some success that they work so hard to achieve,” Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said after the team’s win over the Washington Commanders last weekend, per the team’s official website. “The fight has definitely been there. … [But] we’re still pretty far down in the valley of adversity right now. We’ve made one step in the right direction, so we’ve still got a lot of climbing to do.”
