Cowboys TE JAKE FERGUSON UNDER 25.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-115)
Ferguson has struggled to generate receiving yards this season, averaging just 0.7 yards per route run. The Cowboys tight end has finished with fewer than 26.5 receiving yards in 4 of 5 games, primarily serving as a short-yardage target for Prescott. Green Bay presents another difficult matchup, allowing the fourth-fewest receiving yards to opposing tight ends. With Ferguson averaging just 3.7 yards after the catch and windy conditions expected Sunday night, his opportunities could remain limited.
Packers TE TUCKER KRAFT ANYTIME TOUCHDOWN (+170)
Kraft has started slowly following his torn ACL, catching 20 passes for 212 yards and 1 TD in 5 games. However, the Packers tight end is finding his rhythm, hauling in 11 receptions on 12 targets over his last 2 outings. Dallas presents a favorable matchup, allowing 8.3 yards per target to opposing tight ends, sixth most in the NFL. With 4 recent red-zone targets, Kraft could see more scoring opportunities Sunday night.
