Terrance Ferguson Pulls Hamstring in Rams Practice

The likely grade-one strain should sideline him for a couple weeks and creates a Nov. 25 roster deadline after the Rams opened his 21-day activation window.

Overview

  • Rams coach Sean McVay said Ferguson pulled his hamstring on a standard out route in Friday practice and imaging suggests a likely grade-one strain.
  • McVay expects Ferguson to miss "another couple weeks," which rules him out for the next game and clouds his short-term return timetable.
  • Because the team already started Ferguson’s 21-day window to return from injured reserve, the Rams must activate him by Nov. 25 or keep him on IR for the rest of the season.
  • Ferguson had just returned to practice after missing five games with an ankle sprain and had emerged as a key receiving option early in the season.
  • The Rams, now 5-4 after Sunday’s win, will rely on veteran tight ends such as Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson and depth pieces while monitoring Ferguson’s recovery and the roster deadline.
