Rams ink rookie TE Terrance Ferguson, finalize 2025 draft class

The Los Angeles Rams officially signed tight end Terrance Ferguson to a four-year, $9.71 million rookie contract on Saturday, finalizing their 2025 draft class just ahead of training camp.

Ferguson, the 46th overall pick out of Oregon, received approximately $8.05 million in guaranteed money, roughly 83 percent of the total deal, setting a new benchmark for his draft slot.

The contract reflects a growing trend among second-round picks who are demanding and receiving more guaranteed money, following several top selections in the round securing fully guaranteed deals.

Ferguson appeared in 53 games for the Oregon Ducks, recording 134 catches, 1,537 receiving yards, and 15 touchdowns over four seasons. The 2024 season was his best from a statistical standpoint, catching 43 passes for 591 yards with Dillon Gabriel under center for the Ducks.

Now under contract, Ferguson is expected to integrate into the Rams' offense quickly. He will enter camp as the presumed No. 2 tight end behind veteran Tyler Higbee.

Rams training camp will begin on July 23 at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Their preseason schedule begins Aug. 9 with a home game against the Dallas Cowboys.
