Speaking after Week 9’s win over the Commanders, Rams head coach Sean McVay said Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) will likely be out a “couple [of] weeks.”

Ferguson was set to return in Week 9 against the Commanders prior to suffering a pulled hamstring. According to McVay, the second-year tight end was going to be a “big part” of the Rams’ offensive game plan against the Commanders, which should be good news to fantasy managers still holding out hope for a return. Based on McVay’s comments, we can safely assume Ferguson won’t be playing in Week 10 against the Cardinals, and then the Rams head into their bye. If all goes well in his recovery, it’s possible he could return on a short week in Week 12 to play against the Packers, but we likely won’t have more clarity on that until after their bye. For now, Ferguson remains a worthwhile stash in leagues where you can afford to do so, but it’s hard to say with any confidence when we should expect him to be back on the field.
