ESPN's Mike Clay has ranked the Los Angeles Rams' tight end position as 30th in the NFL, ahead of only two teams. This ranking is surprising given the Rams' depth at tight end, featuring players like Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee. Clay acknowledges the potential of players like Terrance Ferguson, suggesting he could have a significant impact this season. Despite the depth allowing for a spread of production, the ranking is viewed as an undervaluation of the Rams' tight end group, particularly when compared to other teams like the Denver Broncos and Washington Commanders.
