Sean McVay reveals key weapon for Matthew Stafford is ‘out weeks’ with injury

Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson has suffered a hamstring injury just as he was returning to practice from an ankle injury. Coach Sean McVay said Ferguson is likely to miss another couple of weeks, delaying the return of a young receiver who had become a useful target for quarterback Matthew Stafford.

Ferguson strained his hamstring on an out route late in Friday’s practice, and imaging showed a pulled muscle. The Rams have opened his 21-day window to return from injured reserve, meaning he must be activated by 25 November. Before his ankle injury in Week 3, the 23-year-old had 63 yards and a touchdown on seven catches across three games; the Rams have won three consecutive games despite a run of injuries.
