Luke Schoonmaker Scores His First NFL Touchdown

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker made his first NFL catch in Week 2, scoring his first NFL touchdown in the process. He's only been targeted once through two games, but he made it count, scoring a touchdown in the second quarter of the 30-10 win. Schoonmaker has nice longer term upside, but he has Jake Ferguson and Peyton Hendershot ahead of him on the depth chart for now.

Offseason In Review: Dallas Cowboys

Even after back-to-back 12-5 seasons, Mike McCarthy faces pressure going into his fourth year as Cowboys HC. The former Packers leader’s second-chance tenure has proven successful; he is the first Cowboys coach to guide the team to back-to-back playoff berths since Chan Gailey (1998-99). McCarthy will assume greater ownership of the team in Year 4 […]

Luke Schoonmaker Is Pain-Free

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) said after Tuesday's training camp practice that he's pain-free after working his way back from plantar fasciitis. Schoonmaker played 21 offensive snaps in the preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars and 29 offensive snaps in the preseason game last Saturday against the Seattle Seahawks. He's been targeted three times in the two games, catching all three passes for 30 yards. "It's pretty much back to where it was before (the injury)," Schoonmaker said of his foot. "I'm just doing strengthening stuff. I'm really trying to get the rest of my foot strong around it so that I don't have any issues." The second-rounder will begin his rookie season behind Jake Ferguson, putting him off the fantasy radar in redraft leagues.

Luke Schoonmaker Getting More Work In Camp

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) will get more work in training camp practice on Thursday. Schoonmaker missed the start of camp with a partial tear of his plantar fasciia, but he was activated from the Non-Football Injury list earlier this week and continues to progress to more work in practices. Don't expect the 24-year-old to play in Dallas' first preseason game, but barring a setback, he should be ready for the start of the regular season. The tight end spot is wide open for the Cowboys in 2023 now that Dalton Schultz is gone, giving Schoonmaker an opportunity to make a big impact in his rookie season. However, fantasy managers should temper expectations, as Jake Ferguson seems locked into the top pass-catching role in this offense for now.

Luke Schoonmaker Working His Way Back

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) took part in a more full training camp practice on Tuesday and also caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Will Grier. Schoonmaker was finally activated from the Non-Football Injury list in camp on Monday and is starting to do more on the field just a day later. The 24-year-old had been sidelined with a partial tear of his plantar fasciitis in his foot. While he was out, second-year tight end Jake Ferguson cemented himself as the team's No. 1 tight end, but Schoonmaker will eventually have a chance to earn more playing in his first NFL season now that Dalton Schultz is in Houston. Still, Ferguson is the better fantasy bet in 2023 as a low-end TE2 streaming option in deeper fantasy leagues.

Luke Schoonmaker To Be Activated Off NFI List

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) is being activated off the NFI (Non-Football Illness/Injury) list on Monday and will be eased into training camp practice. The 24-year-old has been dealing with a partial tear to the plantar fasciitis of his right foot but has stepped up his work over the last week and will hopefully get back to full action sooner than later. Schoonmaker will likely see playing time in his rookie campaign in 12-personnel packages, but his pass-catching upside will be limited.

Luke Schoonmaker Doing Side Work On Thursday

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) was spotted running routes on the side at Thursday's training camp practice. The 24-year-old is gearing up to practice with the team soon, so it's a positive development in his plantar fascia recovery. Schoonmaker posted just 54 receptions in 43 collegiate games, so it's tough to expect him to make a fantasy impact in his debut campaign. Jake Ferguson is expected to be the primary pass-catching tight end for Dak Prescott in 2023.

Luke Schoonmaker Dealing With Partial Plantar Fascia Tear

Dallas Cowboys rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) said he is dealing with a partial tear to his plantar fascia, which is apparently a trickier injury to navigate through than a complete tear. However, the Michigan alum is remaining optimistic. "It's been good," said Schoonmaker. "I'm just taking a good pace." He hopes to resume practice in the next week or two. The second-round pick caught just 54 passes for 637 yards and seven touchdowns in 43 collegiate games, so it's hard to envision him being a productive receiver in his rookie campaign. Jake Ferguson should operate as the lead tight end for Dallas in 2023.

Luke Schoonmaker Placed On NFI List Tuesday

The Dallas Cowboys placed rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker (foot) on the Non-Football Injury list for the start of training camp on Tuesday. Schoonmaker was limited during offseason practices and now won't be joining the team early on for training camp due to a foot injury that apparently goes back to before this year's NFL draft. The 24-year-old second-round pick has an opportunity to earn some playing time in Dallas in his first NFL season now that Dalton Schultz is no longer around, but he's not off to a good start and will probably need some time to develop. Jake Ferguson and Peyton Hendershot will open camp with more opportunities to impress the coaching staff as they vie for playing time.
