Rams plan to utilize Terrance Ferguson's skills more effectively in 2026
Summary

Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay expressed a desire to leverage tight end Terrance Ferguson's athleticism in the upcoming season. Ferguson averaged 20.8 yards per catch last year but had limited opportunities to showcase his run-after-catch ability. With a strong offseason behind him, Ferguson is expected to have an expanded role, especially as the Rams look for a new WR3. McVay compared Ferguson's movement skills to those of Travis Kelce, indicating the potential for more targets in 2026.
