@SleeperBot: While he never stood much chance to practice three days after suffering a bone bruise and MCL sprain, Ferguson told reporters Wednesday that his pain is already down to a "zero" on a 1-10 scale, per Patrick Walker of dallascowboys.com. The injury clearly isn't as bad as it initially looked when he made an early exit from the Week 1 win at Cleveland, with Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reporting Wednesday that coach Mike McCarthy is optimistic about Ferguson's chances of playing against the Saints this Sunday. Even if he doesn't end up playing this week, Ferguson should avoid a stint on injured reserve and push to return within the next few games.
