All Mattek Fantasy Football insights about Terrance Ferguson

PositiveBreakoutAug 21, 2026
Terrance Ferguson is a 'Ball Knowers' sleeper pick with significant breakout potential. Mattek projects him to finish third on the Rams in receptions, yards, and touchdowns. He is praised by Sean McVay as a 'football genius' and has demonstrated versatility by playing every position except tailback. His fantasy value is bolstered by his role in the Rams' heavy 12 and 13 personnel schemes, specific usage in tight end screens, and recent weight loss aimed at improving YAC ability.

Led all tight ends in targets during rookie season in Arizona with 18.5 average depth of target, differentiating him from Colby Parkinson. 9.31 RAS prospect; 1.5 yards per route run matches first-round pick Kanyon Ricks' pre-draft metric; 3.6 receptions per game is 40th percentile overall but acceptable for tight end (cutoff ~3); spiked to 47% snap share late season with 31-yard touchdown in first meaningful action. Role accelerated as season progressed, positioning him for increased role. Bieniemy projects Ferguson to potentially finish as top-10 tight end with 10-touchdown season; believes this is achievable given Ferguson's 18.5 average depth of target and 60% route rate in the boundary, noting the low cost makes him a low-risk, high-upside value play: 'if I'm wrong about Terrance Ferguson, hey man, no harm, no foul.' Depth chart additions (Max Claire in round two, Tyler Higbee re-signed) do not concern Bieniemy because Ferguson's role in Sean McVay's 12 and 13 personnel scheme positions him as a multi-tight-end weapon; Rams led NFL in 12 and 13 personnel usage in 2025; McVay has plan for Ferguson to win at all depths from three-tight-end formations.

Ferguson is the source's second breakout tight end candidate, positioned as tight end two and wide receiver three for the Los Angeles Rams. The source highlights Ferguson as 'a much better player' than Colby Parkinson (who had 8 TDs but only 8.6 PPR per game last year). Ferguson led all tight ends in average depth of target last season with an aDOT over 18 yards, indicating high-value target opportunities. The Rams made no significant wide receiver three investment, leaving the position open to Jordan Whittington, Xavier Smith, or Kanat Mumfield—all unproven options. Sean McVay has stated Ferguson can play all three positions in the tight end room and also play wide receiver, expanding his role flexibility and target upside. Ferguson has insane touchdown spike potential; the source compares his ceiling to Robert Tonyan's 2020 Packers season (12 TDs in 13 games) and says the sky is the absolute limit, though he won't finish second on the team in targets per game unless Davante Adams gets injured.
