The Rams officially placed tight end Terrance Ferguson on injured reserve this past Friday, confirming he will miss more than just Sunday’s game against the Eagles. This is a tough break for the team as they navigate the early part of their schedule.
Ferguson’s Early Exit
Ferguson’s ankle injury now means a significant absence for the tight end. He had put up seven catches for 63 yards and a touchdown so far this season. Last year, he snagged 11 passes for 231 yards and two scores. Losing him this early hurts the depth at the position, especially as the team looks to build momentum.
More Injury Woes for the Rams
Ferguson isn’t the only concern for the Rams right now. Defensive tackle Aaron Donald, a massive presence on that D-line, is out for the weekend’s game with a back injury. Cornerback Jaylen Watson also got ruled out with a shoulder injury, adding to the list of key players on the sidelines. To try and fill some of these holes, the Rams signed wide receiver Alex Bachman and defensive end Larrell Murchison to the active roster from the practice squad.
With these key players sidelined, especially against the Eagles this Sunday, the Rams have some serious questions to answer about their depth.
