The Rams placed tight end Terrance Ferguson on injured reserve due to his ankle injury, a move that takes him out of the lineup for at least the next four games.
Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter): Rams placed TE Terrance Ferguson on injured reserve due to his ankle injury.
Ferguson tried to play through the ankle issue, but it got worse in Sunday's win over Denver, per Jeremy Fowler. The decision to move him to IR gives the Rams a clear path to a longer recovery window rather than trying to manage the injury week to week.
His absence thins the tight end room. Colby Parkinson is listed as questionable with knee and shoulder issues and did not practice all week, leaving Los Angeles to lean on its depth at the position against the Eagles on Sunday.
The Rams are already managing a long list of injuries on both sides of the ball, and Ferguson's IR stint adds another name to that group as they try to keep pace in the NFC.
