Who Should I Start? T.J. Hockenson or Terrance Ferguson

Los Angeles Rams second-year tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle), who is not eligible to return from Injured Reserve until the Week 8 game against the Los Angeles Chargers, should have a big role in the Rams' passing attack when he returns after the team placed veteran receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) on IR on Monday. Adams suffered a hamstring injury in the Week 6 loss to the division-rival Arizona Cardinals on Sunday and is now expected to miss anywhere from six to 10 weeks. The 23-year-old Ferguson easily has the most pass-catching upside among the many names in the Rams' tight end corps, even though he had only seven catches on 12 targets for 63 yards and one touchdown in the three games that he has played so far in 2026. Ferguson is expected back after a minimal IR stint, so fantasy managers looking for upgrades at TE should consider stashing the former second-rounder from Oregon off the waiver wire now. He is currently rostered in only 13% of Yahoo leagues. Ferguson came on strong down the stretch in his rookie campaign and finished with an 11-231-3 line in 14 regular-season games.
