"I'm reluctant to get too far ahead of anything, just because -- but yes, that is something we'd want to avoid if he's not prepared," McVay said, regarding the possibility of Ferguson being shut down.

News: 4 days agoRams head coach Sean McVay acknowledged Monday during his appearance on the "Coach McVay Show" that he remains optimistic Ferguson (hamstring/ankle) will return from injured reserve this season, though he was unwilling to guarantee that the tight end will be activated by the time his 21-day evaluation window closes, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports. "I'm reluctant to get too far ahead of anything, just because -- but yes, that is something we'd want to avoid if he's not prepared," McVay said, regarding the possibility of Ferguson being shut down.

Spin: After missing five consecutive games while recovering from an ankle sprain, Ferguson appeared poised to return from IR ahead of this past Sunday's game against the Commanders, but his activation was delayed after he pulled his hamstring while running a route during Friday's practice. McVay said after the practice that the setback would likely keep Ferguson out for "a couple more weeks." Ferguson's 21-day window will come to a close Nov. 25, so even if he doesn't resume practicing before then, he'll likely need to show the Rams that he's made at least some progress in his recovery from the hamstring injury to get activated. McVay said that he would be open to adding Ferguson back to the 53-man roster before he's ready to play, but the Rams may not be keen on essentially playing a man down for more than a game or two.

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.
