The season starts in a different way for Jack Ferguson
This game also holds special significance for Ferguson after everything that has happened off the field over the summer.
The Dallas tight end married Haley on June 20, 2026, at the Biltmore Hotel in Miami. Now, just a few weeks later, the two have had another big moment, but this time inside an NFL stadium as Ferguson begins the new season with the Cowboys.
In football, expectations are high for him as well. Ferguson was coming off what was considered his best season and earned his second Pro Bowlin addition to signing an extension. He also became one of Dak Prescott’s trusted options, especially around the goal line.
This added an extra layer to Hailey’s presence: She wasn’t just there to watch her husband play. She was there to see him start another season and expected him to take another step forward.
Dallas becomes the favorite…and from there, everything starts to get complicated
The Cowboys also weren’t as good as any team heading into their game against the New York Giants.
Dallas was a three-point favorite before the gamebased on the betting split for this game, 74% of fan funds are backing the Cowboys. The most important thing is, Dallas has won 11 of its last 12 season openers against the Giants.
But there’s a reason not to get too comfortable.
The Cowboys went 7-9-1 in 2025, missed the playoffs and finished second in the NFC East. The offense also showed some positive signs, with Prescott leading the NFL with 404 completions and 4,552 yards, while George Pickens recorded 1,429 receiving yards.
The problem is on the other side of the ball. Dallas’ defense is the worst in the NFL in 2025, allowing 30.1 points per game.
The first test in 2026 therefore raises a very clear question: Will the strength of the offense be enough to make up for the shortcomings of the previous year?
The Giants have another idea for the celebration
The answer soon became clear.
New York opens the scoring with Cam Scatebo’s rushing touchdownAs the game wore on, the Giants found other ways to punish Dallas. quarterback Jaxson Dart finished with 230 yards and three touchdowns, while New York’s defense also made a big play when Jevon Holland intercepted Prescott.
Dallas did manage to get on the scoreboard. Prescott throws touchdowns to CeeDee Lamb and Javonte Williamsbut the Cowboys never managed to translate those responses into the control they needed.
Ultimately, the Giants took away 28-20 win.
For Jack, this wasn’t the night he expected either.
The tight end had just two catches for six yards and no touchdowns on two targets. From this perspective, He had a stellar performance against the Giants last season, catching 9 passes for 78 yards..
This time, the punch simply wasn’t there.
Now comes the next challenge.
The Cowboys return home for their next game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texasthey’ll have another chance to show whether the game against New York was just a bad start or a sign that there are still issues that need to be addressed.
