Mattek Fantasy Football ranks Terrence Ferguson as tight end seven in every league and is starting him. Ferguson only played 58% of snaps but had a 70% route share against the New York Giants, second on team in routes and targets with 9 targets, 6 receptions, 54 yards, and a touchdown (with two drops, one tipped by offensive lineman). With Puka Nakua out, Ferguson is a top-10 tight end in fantasy.PositiveBreakoutSep 23, 2026
The source identifies Terrance Ferguson as the top waiver wire add of the season, citing his breakout performance against the Giants where he recorded 17.4 PPR points, a 29% target share, and a 70% route participation rate. He is highlighted as having elite usage, running more routes than any other player on the Rams during that game except for Davante Adams.PositiveBreakoutSep 20, 2026
Terrence Ferguson is the most direct beneficiary if Puka Nacua is out, as the Rams historically shift to heavier 12 and 13 personnel groupings. He is a recommended waiver wire pickup and start, particularly in tight end premium leagues (1.4 points per reception).PositiveBreakoutSep 20, 2026
Terence Ferguson is identified as the most direct beneficiary if Puka Nacua is out, as the Rams historically shift to heavier 12 and 13 personnel groupings in those scenarios. He is a recommended target in tight end premium leagues.PositiveUsageSep 18, 2026
Despite a disappointing zero-target game last week, Terrence Ferguson ran significantly more routes than Charlie Kar, suggesting higher usage and opportunity going forward.PositiveProjectionSep 11, 2026
Terrence Ferguson looked pretty bad in recent performance, raising concerns about his fantasy value. However, the source would not drop him, noting 'There are a lot of leagues where he would be good' and 'There are a lot of leagues where if he got dropped, he'd get picked up.' The source predicts Ferguson 'is going to go really really late' with a 'strong strong chance,' suggesting he is a late-round sleeper with league-dependent upside despite recent poor play.PositiveProjectionSep 10, 2026
The source drafted Terrence Ferguson specifically for first touchdown scoring, indicating confidence in his red zone role and touchdown upside in the offense.PositiveProjectionSep 7, 2026
Terrence Ferguson's average depth of target (aDOT) led all tight ends last year at 18.5 yards, with no other tight end higher than 10.5 yards. Mattek Fantasy Football is very interested in his week-one route share; if Ferguson gets a 75% route share, the source projects significant fantasy profit. The key variables are his route count, target volume, and whether he gets deep targets.PositiveSleeperAug 28, 2026
The source identifies Terrence Ferguson as a favorite sleeper, projecting him to function as a hybrid of a WR3 and a high-volume tight end like Isaiah Likely, benefiting from Matthew Stafford's high passing volume.PositiveSleeperAug 22, 2026
Terrence Ferguson is the source's favorite player in the entire pool for late-round drafting, with expectations that he will finish third on the Rams in catches, receptions, and yards.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.PositiveValueAug 11, 2026
The source likes Terrance Ferguson as a late-round tight end option, noting that there is no penalty for waiting to draft tight ends if you miss out on the top-tier elite options.PositiveValueAug 7, 2026
Terrence Ferguson is ranked ahead of Chika Conqua and Brenton Strange in the speaker's tight end hierarchy, indicating preference for Ferguson's upside. The speaker notes that Ferguson's draft gospel has been spreading, suggesting growing recognition of his value.PositiveBreakoutJun 30, 2026
Terrance Ferguson has a legitimate breakout argument as teams are playing more 12 and 13 personnel packages.NegativeBreakoutJun 4, 2026
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.NegativeInjuryNo date
Terrence Ferguson is on injured reserve and will miss at least four games, creating a vacancy at the receiving tight end position for the Rams.PositiveBreakoutNo date
Aj Brown's absolute favorite late-round tight end; will function as tight end two and wide receiver three for the Los Angeles Rams; Brown would not be surprised if Ferguson finishes third on the team in touchdowns, including ahead of Kairen Williams, and could have double-digit touchdowns.PositiveBreakoutNo date
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.
