Rams Reach Agreement With Terrance Ferguson on Rookie Deal

The Los Angeles Rams reached an agreement on Saturday with second-round tight end Terrance Ferguson on a four-year, $9,713,466 contract, including $8,046,753 in guarantees, according to his agent Steve Caric. The Rams took Ferguson with the 46th overall pick in April's NFL draft out of Oregon. The 22-year-old consistently produced for the Ducks and had his best season in 2024, catching 43 passes for 591 yards and three touchdowns. While Ferguson won't be drafted in standard-sized redraft leagues this fall, he represents valuable insurance for Tyler Higbee, who played in only three regular-season games in 2024 due to injury. Ferguson has good size at 6-foot-5 and 247 pounds, but he may need to prove to the coaching staff that he's able to handle himself as a blocker before he can overtake Higbee as the primary pass-catching TE.

Terrance Ferguson Could Benefit from Rams Scheme Changes

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson was selected by the team with the No. 46 overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Oregon. It was rumored that the Rams were interested in trading up for Brock Bowers in 2024 and one of Colston Loveland or Tyler Warren in 2025, so Sean McVay and company have been eyeing an impact tight end, which makes Ferguson intriguing right away for fantasy football purposes. While Tyler Higbee remains in Los Angeles, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic believes Ferguson could be a breakout player if the offense utilizes more 12-personnel (two tight ends) this season. "While McVay's scheme was still largely run through 11 personnel (82 percent of the Rams' offensive plays in 2024), he also deployed 12 personnel on 15.5 percent of offensive plays and hit that average or higher between Weeks 15 and 18." Rodrigue wrote. "The Rams ran 12 personnel on an average of just 5 percent of offensive plays in 2023. Veteran tight end Tyler Higbee's return from injury across that period gave McVay two healthy starting-caliber tight ends. He has reiterated his hope for his offense to be more multiple." With the Rams lacking a quality wide receiver behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, it would not be surprising to see Ferguson on the field often in his rookie season. That said, it usually takes tight ends some time to develop, and he'll have plenty of target competition in Year 1. He's not worth drafting in traditional fantasy setups, but he is worth monitoring as a potential later-season waiver wire pickup.
