Noah Fant vs Terrance Ferguson: Who Should You Start?
Noah Fant (3.9 PPG) and Terrance Ferguson (3.3 PPG) produced nearly identical fantasy numbers in 2025. When two tight ends are this close on a per-game basis, the weekly matchup matters more than the season-long resume. Noah Fant played 15 games for the New Orleans Saints; Terrance Ferguson suited up 14 times for the Los Angeles Rams.
A 0.6-point per-game gap over a full season is essentially noise. It means one extra catch, one fewer target, or a single broken play away from flipping the script. For a weekly start/sit call between these two, matchup analysis matters far more than the season line.
Noah Fant is the volume tight end in this matchup with 34 receptions for 288 yards, while Terrance Ferguson profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (3 scores on 11 catches). In weeks where Terrance Ferguson finds the end zone he out-scores Noah Fant, but the floor gap is real.
Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Noah Fant sits Week 12 while Terrance Ferguson is off Week 6. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.
