Terrance Ferguson
A second-year Rams tight end with real breakout buzz and the best pass-catching upside in the room, but the current coverage I could surface is thin and largely forward-looking rather than a settled week-to-week role — treat him as a talent bet inside a crowded tight end group, not an established volume play.
Role
Ferguson was a situational rookie in 2025 behind Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen, and the Rams still deploy a deep, rotational tight end room that uses plenty of 12 and 13 personnel. He is the group's most athletic receiving option and the candidate to work as the pass-game tight end behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams in the target pecking order, but the same rotation caps his snap ceiling: Higbee and Parkinson take blocking/inline work, Davis Allen mixes in, and 2026 second-round pick Max Klare adds another body competing for pass-game reps. Concrete snap share and target share figures were not available in the coverage I could confirm.
Draft capital plus athleticism in a Sean McVay offense with Matthew Stafford: optimists argue he is effectively the Rams' third pass-game option and see a path to a big jump in routes and targets in year two, with analysts openly framing him as a potential league-winning breakout at the position.
The room is crowded on purpose. Higbee, Parkinson, Allen and now Klare all take snaps, and the Rams' target tree runs through Nacua and Adams first. Rookie-year usage was situational, and rotational tight ends in multi-TE offenses often deliver spiky, unpredictable weekly lines even when the talent is real.
Where analysts split
Whether the Rams actually consolidate the tight end snaps around Ferguson as the every-down pass-game option, or keep the committee rotation that limited him as a rookie — that is the question that separates the breakout calls from the fade calls, and the arrival of Max Klare sharpens it.
