Terrance Ferguson

[CoachAllred]

Wasn't Ferguson a healthy scratch in a few games early last year? Stats say he played in 14 games. This shows he doesn't have a history of missing a bunch of games. Just the ankle injury this year. It happens in a contact sport. Parkinson's been in and out of the games a few times this year.

I am not happy with Ferguson. But its not that I think he is a injury waiting to happen.
Even though it feels like he has been injury prone.

I feel if were throwing darts at the guy, It's more from
the frustration from the tremendous amount of team injuries this year
and the fact that he is a guy who could really help with the loss of Davante.
I just got through reading a article about Stafford not being able to
trust Mump or Whittington they both were running the wrong routes in
the chargers game. Puka is playing though his body is beat up. So now you don't
want to over work him.
I guess we continue playing ground and pound , Maybe
find ways to get Tutu more involved.
Don't know I guess I am like a lot of others. I'm praying that the defense can take the
pressure off the offense.

I apologize for the rambling. Just so much going on with this team and it's just so frustrating.

All of them, if I look at it. Higs and DAllen have missed some time as well.
A lot is asked of the TE position with this offense.

Way too early IMO, to consider trading a guy who the team planned to be a major player on offense this season. Injuries happen FFS.

Ferguson is under contract for another two and a half years. Rookie contract. They will see it through. He was a second round pick. You don't give up that quick on a guy. We just need him to stay on the field. The hammy could be because of the ankle injury. Changing the way you walk and putting pressure on other parts of the leg can make the hammy vulnerable. Lets just be patient. Maybe soon he'll be back at full strength. He's the guy who has the big play ability.

I said in the pre game thread, that it seems he has the injury bug, While it's to early to tell, the one thing we know is it's keeping the offense from packing a punch with him. It's to early to consider trading him...let's just hope there's no looking back from here!!!

What the hell are they doing or not doing in practice causing all these injuries.

Garrett, Mcduffie, Ferguson. All injured in practice. I am sure I am missing someone else.

Devante on a non contact play.

Do they not stretch before practice and games. Is the Gatorade spiked by Bill Belicheck?

Something seriously is wrong with the pre activity protocols.

All our TEs for some reason seemed to get nicked up and hurting. Been like that for a few years now it seems.

I haven't heard anything about Klare.

Damn it! Injuries going to haunt us all season????

Way too early to call him injury prone.
Remember Bruce had that label for awhile. Then it all changed.

Isaac Bruce put up 1,781 yards in his second season. Then 1,338 in his third season. Then he had a couple years where he got hurt and missed games, which was when DV made that superstar comment. After which he went on a four year tear with the GSoT.

Ferguson is in his second season now and he's not looking like a big year is ahead. In fact he's starting to remind me of some other camp stars that fizzled hard come the regular season.

Generally speaking if a TE doesn't show year two, he's unlikely to be anything special. I'm sure there's outliers but statistically it's not good if he can't show up this year and demonstrate he's gonna provide some return for that round two pick. I don't hate him or anything either. I'm just not gonna make excuses for him. Get on that field and show what you can do kid.

It’s far too soon to write him off!

I agree that Bruce is not a good comp. It’s also a little unfair to compare a 2nd year TE to an all world WR

My concern is not whether he is a good player, or that he couldn’t be a star in this offense, it’s the constant injury bug. That said, he was fine at College so perhaps we should put it down to bad luck. At least for now!

It’s far too soon to write him off!

Again for the record I am not writing him off. I am observing that statistically speaking he's going to be an inline type like Higs at best. If he was going to be an option route stud for us across the middle we'd be seeing that by now.

Thus the only real hope for this TE group, as far as giving us a boost in the pass game, is Klare. I'd plop his ass into this offense in the slot role (Kupp usage) and see how he does. What do we have to lose here. This offense is going to be absolutely miserable if Puka misses time.
