Second-year tight end positioned as the Rams' most direct path to elevating their offense to the next level. Ferguson posted an elite 9.57 RAS at Oregon with rare speed and explosiveness; as a rookie, he caught 11 passes averaging 21 yards per reception with 9 of 11 receptions resulting in first downs or touchdowns. He led all qualified tight ends with 17.6 air yards per attempt, more than six yards higher than second place, despite playing only 39% of snaps and catching just 40% of targets. Head coach Sean McVay said Ferguson is "everything and that much more than I hoped he would be" and believes he'll be "a huge part of what we're gonna do for years to come." Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer noted Ferguson "is now proving to be a guy who can play all over the formation and looks like he could be a force after the catch." The Athletic Football Show named him a second-year X-factor, with co-host Dave Helman calling him "probably your best bet to become basically 'Wide Receiver 3' in that offense." The source argues the Rams will find ways to get him on the field despite depth chart competition.PositiveBreakoutAug 7, 2026

Tight end Terrance Ferguson is identified as a talented depth option in the Rams' tight end room capable of making plays in the passing game.

The source predicts Ferguson leads the Rams tight ends in receiving yards and touchdowns. Ferguson and Stafford were close throughout last season but could never quite fire on all cylinders, similar to Davante Adams. Now with his rookie year under his belt and beginning to nail down the nuances of a difficult position in a Sean McVay offense, the source believes the Rams have big plans for Ferguson in the flex role with frequent seam route plays for tight ends.NegativeUsageJul 26, 2026
Ferguson, drafted 46th overall in 2025, played in 14 games last season but started only three and logged just 39% of offensive snaps in the regular season per Pro Football Reference. Despite being a second-round pick, his snap share was lower than expected, which the source frames as a challenge for Klare's opportunity in the crowded TE room.PositiveRoleJul 23, 2026
Returning veteran tight end with versatility to line up anywhere and take advantage of mismatches; always a threat to attack deep in the Rams' five-man rotation built to compete and win in 2026.PositiveBreakoutJul 23, 2026
Battled injuries in his rookie year (groin early, hamstring late), but showed promising upside as a hybrid receiver-tight end. Ferguson averaged 21 yards per catch (11 catches on 25 targets) and demonstrated the ability to get behind defenders and make big plays. His rookie film shows crisp routes with sharp breaks that create separation, long stride and build-up speed to run past heavier-footed safeties and linebackers. Areas for development include catch percentage and physicality on contested catches. His blocking was better than draft pundits suggested—not a power player, but he showed ability to extend his long arms, stay in front, and lock out/screen off defenders. He has the hybrid chops to blur the lines of traditional personnel groupings.NegativeDepth ChartJul 23, 2026
Ferguson appeared on 97.1% of fan-submitted 53-man rosters, indicating strong consensus that he will make the roster as a tight end. The source notes that the Rams are keeping five tight ends, which is part of Sean McVay's apparent insistence to load the tight end room.NegativeDepth ChartJul 23, 2026
Ferguson is one of only two players under 25 who started games for the Rams last season and is 23 years old. His presence as a starting tight end reflects the Rams' limited youth depth, as the team is ranked dead last by ESPN in talented players under 25.PositiveRoleJul 22, 2026
