News: 2 days agoFerguson (soreness) was working off to the side at Tuesday's practice, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Spin: Ferguson is at least healthy enough to avoid being completely shut down from all activities. The second-year tight end has carried plenty of buzz all offseason and has a chance to emerge as Matthew Stafford's third option behind Puka Nacua (groin) and Davante Adams. Los Angeles will make heavy use of its deep stable of tight ends, but Ferguson has the most playmaking ability of the group. Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson, Davis Allen (quadriceps) and 2026 second-round pick Max Klare will also be in the mix for reps in two-TE and three-TE formations.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Ferguson is a potential breakout candidate in his second NFL season. As expected, the 2025 second-rounder played a situational role behind the likes of Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen as a rookie. He didn't get much run, but when he did, he was used as a vertical threat to the extreme. His 17.5 aDOT is highest by any tight end (minimum 10 targets) in at least a decade. The Rams are returning the same tight end room plus second-round pick Max Klare, so while consistent production could prove elusive, Ferguson very well could emerge as the No. 3 pass catcher behind Puka Nacua and 33-year-old Davante Adams in the Rams' elite offense. The 23-year-old, who also saw five end zone targets as a rookie, is worth a late-round lottery ticket.
