Oregon tight end Terrance Ferguson selected by Rams in second round

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams selected Oregon tight end Terrance Ferguson with the 46th overall pick in the second round of the NFL draft on Friday night.

Ferguson had 134 catches for 1,537 yards and 16 touchdowns in four seasons with the Ducks, earning first-team All-Pac-12 recognition in 2023.

Ferguson represents a potential long-term answer at the position for the Rams. Tyler Higbee, a nine-year veteran, is going into the final season of a two-year contract extension he signed in 2023.
