With the offseason program underway and the 2022 NFL Draft just five days, theRams.com will be taking an updated look at positions on the team's roster.
Up next: Linebacker.
Key offseason moves
- Signed veteran Bobby Wagner to a five-year deal. Besides bringing a reliable tackler to the middle of the defense, Wagner's arrival also adds valuable mentor to second-year pro Ernest Jones.
- Re-signed Travin Howard. The former seventh-round pick came up big late in the season and especially the playoffs with his game-clinching interception in the NFC Championship.
