Oregon TE Terrance Ferguson selected with No. 46 pick in 2025 NFL draft

It's a streak that has lasted for over a decade, but it has finally ended.

For the first time in 11 years, the Oregon Ducks have had a tight end selected in the NFL draft as Terrance Ferguson was picked in the 3rd round and No. 46 overall by the Los Angeles Rams .

The last time a Duck tight end was drafted was in 2010, when the Pittsburgh Steelers selected David Paulson in the third round. But as soon as Ferguson was recruited and eventually signed with Oregon, he became the best chance to break that streak in quite some time.

Ferguson was the No. 1 recruit out of Colorado as a four-star talent, and he played up to and surpassed his rating. He was an All-Big Ten third-team performer and was on the John Mackey Award watch list for the best tight end in the country in 2024.

The 6-foot-5, 255-pounder out of Littleton, Colo. was able to tie the Oregon single-season record for receptions by a tight end with 43 while finishing second in single-season history with 591 receiving yards. By the time the season ended, Ferguson was in the end zone three times in 2024 and a total of 16 touchdowns for his career.

When he was done, Ferguson was the Oregon all-time leader among tight ends in receptions (134) and ranked second all-time in receiving yards (1,537).

Ferguson has a chance to play right away for the Rams and be a fixture on their team for many years to come.
