Every newcomer on Rams’ roster heading into training camp
The Los Angeles Rams have so many new faces in their building this year that they had to put names on the helmets of players during OTAs and minicamp – something they don’t typically do. Teams are allowed to carry up to 90 players during the offseason and at the moment, the Rams have 87 players under contract.
Of those 87, more than half of them are newcomers acquired in the offseason. Some were added as free agents, some via trade, others in the draft and many of them were signed as undrafted rookies.
Here’s a look at all 44 newcomers on the Rams’ roster right now heading into training camp.
