With Ferguson's contract, the Rams have signed all six 2025 draft picks. He's projected as the No. 2 TE on the depth chart, behind Super Bowl LVI champion, Tyler Higbee.

During his four-season stint with the Oregon Ducks, Ferguson played 53 games, recording 1537 yards and 16 TDs receiving. Last season, he put up 591 receiving yards with three touchdowns as Dan Lanning's team became the undefeated Big Ten 10 champion. Despite qualifying for the 12-team playoffs, they lost to Ohio State in the Rose Bowl quarterfinal, though.
